Tours to Austria are good both winter and summer. There are only three resorts in Austria where a combination of skiing and spa is possible. You should definitely take advantage of this. In summer, you can organize a very interesting trip – tours to Vienna for 2-3 days to see the main sights of Austria plus relaxation and enjoyment at a famous spa resort, where you will spend wonderful days amid untouched nature and can recharge with vigor, strength, and energy.
You can also visit the unique resort of Bad Gastein, which besides excellent ski slopes also offers great opportunities for health improvement. Thermal complexes, spa and radon galleries are the hallmark of Bad Gastein. The resort has been known since Celtic times. In Celtic, 'Gastuny' means healing water. The Kaiser himself and his entourage once bathed in the healing springs of Bad Gastein.
Famous Russians also visited here. For example, Gogol, Chaliapin and many others. In the Gastein Valley there are two famous thermal complexes: Rock Thermal Baths and Alpine Thermal Baths.
You can relax from everyday problems, stress and bustle in the thermal complex «Rock Thermal Baths». Here you will find geysers, a children's pool, a water slide, saunas and steam rooms, massage chairs, a well-equipped fitness area, a counter-current channel and a rock grotto with a waterfall.
The second famous complex is «Alpine Thermal Baths». The thermal complex is located in a very picturesque place. And against this stunning backdrop of mountain landscapes, 6 exciting worlds will appear before you: Relax World – an oasis of peace and relaxation; Sauna World, where you can work up a sweat in saunas and then freshen up in a real mountain lake; Family World – a world of water fun with water slides; Ladies World – a sauna gallery for ladies only.
Radon galleries are a real treatment center. The unique combination of high air humidity (70-100%), heat (37-42 degrees) and radon (44 kBq/cubic meter) allows treatment of diseases of the musculoskeletal system, including Bechterew's disease, arthrosis, arthritis, etc.; respiratory diseases – bronchitis, asthma, sinusitis, etc.; skin diseases – psoriasis, difficult-to-heal wounds and others.
These galleries were once gold mines. Only the workers toiling in the mines somehow did not die from backbreaking labor and hellish working conditions as elsewhere. That is how the therapeutic effect of radon radiation was discovered. Radon-hyperthermic procedures show a positive effect in 90% of patients.
