Map of spas and health resorts in Bavaria
The touristic importance of the spas and health resorts is diverse:
- good overnight accommodation in hotels, guest houses and guest rooms
- good gastronomic offers
- mostly well signposted attractive hiking trails
- often interesting spa parks
- mostly good bathing opportunities
- sporting activities are often offered not only for spa guests
- often diverse cultural offers
There are different therapeutic baths depending on the type of treatment:
- Moor healing baths with mud baths made from peat, e.g. Bad Kohlgrub or Bad Kissingen
- Mineral spas with their own mineral water, e.g. Bad Füssing, Bad Griesbach and Bad Birnbach
- Sole therapeutic baths with their own brine wells, e.g. Bad Staffelstein with Bavaria's strongest brine
- Radon baths with healing water with natural radioactivity due to the noble gas radon, e.g. Sibyllenbad
- Kneipp therapeutic baths with a focus on Kneipp medicine, e.g. Bad Wörrishofen or Bad Berneck
- Maritime health resorts with a maritime climate (on the coast, not in Bavaria)
