The thermal water

Leukerbad is a village of thermal springs in the Valais Alps. Here is how to take the water while you stay.

A thermal pool seen from its stone edge, steam over the water, a cliff beyond

Taking the water

Three steps, in the order a bath goes.

  • 1. Shower, then go in slowly

    Wash before the bath, and let the warm water reach you a step at a time.

  • 2. Bathe a little, then rest

    Stay in for as long as it feels good, then come out and lie still before the next bath.

  • 3. Drink water afterwards

    Drink a glass or two, and give yourself a quiet hour after the last bath.

Ask for your nights

Tell the hotel the date you arrive, how many of you are coming and the room you would like. It answers your request.
