Avenida-Therme

About

A bathing complex beside the Hohenfelden reservoir, with a family pool hall and a separate Saunenwelt of seven themed cabins. Among them are a wood-fired pine cabin and a herb cabin in the sauna garden, plus an event cabin with changing Aufgüsse. There is a sauna restaurant and fireside rest rooms; the sauna floor is textilfrei.

Good to know

• Runs aufguss sessions: a guided löyly ritual where an attendant fans the steam around the room on a schedule.
• Direct lake access: most visitors plunge straight into the water between sauna rounds.
• Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
• Pool on site: works alongside the sauna for swim-and-sauna sessions or a longer cool-down between rounds.
• Restaurant on site, so long sessions are the design. Food is part of the visit rather than a stop on the way home.
• Pairs the sauna with spa services like massage or a scrub, so a session can sit inside a wider visit.
• Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.

• Daily 10:00-22:00

Shortened to 10:00-14:00 on 24 and 31 December. The sauna world runs within the therme's hours; an after-work sauna starts at 20:00 on Wednesdays and Thursdays, excluding public holidays and Thuringian school holidays.
