Bad Füssing can be planned around different interests: thermal baths sit alongside cycle paths, the spa orchestra and places such as the Bible Garden. The facilities and routes differ in their pools, areas, themes and destinations. Consider whether you would like to focus your stay primarily on thermal baths, cycling or culture; the specific differences can help you make your choice.
Thermal Baths: Pools, Areas and Distinctive Features
Therme Eins offers twelve differently designed and heated pool attractions across a total water area of 2,500 m². It began operating in Bad Füssing in the 1950s. The sauna courtyard at Therme Eins is located in an original Rottal farmhouse complex.
Europa Therme has 17 pools of different designs across a 3,000 m² thermal bath complex. Its sauna area covers 1,000 m². Attractions include a current channel, whirlpools, a relaxation and unwinding pool with underwater music, a large sulfur gas pool and the AeroSalzum. The area figures refer to different sections: the thermal bath complex and the sauna area. The areas and number of pools may change following renovations; before your visit, also check the operator’s current information.
In the indoor area of the Johannesbad thermal spa, the thermal wave pool has a water temperature of 33 to 35 °C. The eight exercise pools at Johannesbad also include a current massage pool with a water area of around 1,000 m² and the same temperature of 33 to 35 °C. This describes two pools with the same stated temperature range, but different names and areas. Temperature information may change; check the operator’s current information before your visit.
Cycle Paths and Combining Cycling with Swimming
The Bad Füssing Church Cycle Route is over 30 kilometres long and leads to the churches in the municipal area. The approximately 25-kilometre RadKapellenWeg (Chapel Cycle Route) runs through the Bad Füssing countryside. The two routes can be distinguished by the information provided: the Church Cycle Route is described as the longer route, at over 30 kilometres, and focuses on churches in the municipal area; for the RadKapellenWeg, the approximate distance and the surrounding countryside are emphasised.
With “thermal cycling,” visitors to Bad Füssing combine cycling and thermal bathing. This offers a distinct approach to planning your stay: you can think of cycling and thermal baths as two complementary parts of your trip, while the two named cycle routes are described by their respective lengths and focus.
Spa Orchestra, Garden and Autumn Festival
The Bad Füssing spa orchestra performs ten times each week. Its repertoire includes opera, operetta and classical music, including works by Mozart and Haydn, as well as more modern tunes by Gershwin and musicals such as “Jesus Christ Superstar.” The weekly performance schedule and the breadth of the repertoire offer different kinds of guidance: the schedule helps with planning when to visit, while the works listed give an idea of the musical styles. As the published weekly schedule may change, check the current performance dates before your visit.
The cultural festival in Bad Füssing is a recurring highlight in autumn. Its programme varies from year to year; if you would like to plan your stay around an event, check the dates and the programme for that year before travelling.
The Bible Garden is in a park between the Protestant and Catholic churches. It features 80 of the 110 plants mentioned in the Bible, grown in landscaped miniature settings. The number indicates the extent of the selection: the garden showcases some, but not all, of the plants mentioned in the Bible.
The Meditation Trail starts at the “Helping Hands” sculpture in front of the Catholic Church of the Holy Spirit. It passes through the labyrinth in front of the church and into the church, then continues to the leisure park, the pond and the island in the park, through the Bible Garden and to the lime tree in the spa gardens. The route can therefore be followed through its successive locations. As the specific route may change, check it before your visit.
