Any hike or exploration can start right outside your door.
EXPLORATIONS

SPA
2.5 kilometers by train into the Radhausberg near Böckstein to the natural radon gallery. A therapy with Heilstollen entrances leads to an improvement especially in chronic diseases of the musculoskeletal system, the respiratory tract and the skin.
Self-healing powers are activated, the immune system is strengthened.
After clarification by a doctor, the train leads into the mountain – where something much more valuable was found in the search for gold in the 1940s: relief for pain patients – here they too can find peace for a change. The immune system is boosted by the alpha radiation, the repair function of the cells is stimulated and, in turn, anti-inflammatory messenger substances are sent out. Long-lasting pain relief, savings on medication for up to a year and immune stabilization are the scientifically proven effects of radon therapy in the Heilstollen in Austria.
Heilstollen therapy in Gastein is recognized by Austrian and German health insurance companies. Villa Rosa is only 1 bus stop away from the Heilstollen and is therefore easily accessible by public transport as well as by private car.
