Naturerlebnisbad Kössen Tirol

Naturerlebnisbad Kössen in Tyrol's Kaisergebirge draws sulfate-bicarbonate thermal waters in a border community between Tyrol and Bavaria at the foot of the Wilder Kaiser massif — one of the most dramatically sculpted limestone mountain ranges in the Alps, a playground for climbers since the earliest days of alpine mountaineering. The thermal pool complex is integrated with a nature experience park using the Tirolean mountains' natural landscape for wellness activities, complementing the mineral soaking with forest walks, mountain biking on the Kaiser-Gebirge trails, and the extraordinary Kaisergebirge flora of rare alpine flowers. The nearby Kufstein fortress — a Habsburg stronghold on the Inn River — and the Kaisergebirge's extraordinary echo that reverberates from the limestone walls over long distances on still mornings create an alpine setting of unusual sonic and architectural drama surrounding the thermal pools.
