Kneipping in the Dolomites Region Seiser Alm
The Kneipp facilities
The Kneipp facility in Ratzes lies at the foot of the Schlern, very close to the Hotel Bad Ratzes. It is fed with fresh spring water. You can look forward to invigorating Kneipp treatments in the wading basin and pure refreshment at the arm and facial basin. Cosy seating areas invite you to linger and listen to the soothing murmur of the Frötsch stream. By the way: there is also a Kneipp facility at the entrance to Kastelruth and another at the Völser Weiher. The best way to enjoy the one at the Völser Weiher is to combine your visit with a swim in this popular lake.
