Cold Arm Bath Stützerbach

Cold arm bath with a great view, great!

As the name suggests, you won't get rich here.The arm bath is part of the "AtemWeg", which opened on August 12, 2022 and invites you to participate in 11 stations with a focus on modern wellness, sports and recreational requirements. Therapeutic approaches, especially on the topic of breathing techniques and preventive health promotion, also played a role in the design of the 3.6-kilometer-long path.Stützerbach was first mentioned as a high-altitude health resort in 1910. Since 1929, patients have been treated using the Kneipp healing method. In 1932, Stützerbach was advertised as the first Kneipp health resort in Thuringia. In the town and the surrounding forest, there are Kneipp facilities such as water treading pools and arm baths as well as herb beds, a certified Kneipp kindergarten, a Kneipp elementary school and a very committed Kneipp association.

The many years of spa operation as a Kneipp bath can still be seen on many a corner in Stutzerbach. For example at the stations with Kneipp treatments on the "airway". A section of this health path runs along the panorama path above the village. It lies between 590 and 828 meters above sea level and is now a state-approved climatic health resort. Japanese would be enthusiastic about the possibilities for shinrinyoku (= forest bathing) that open up here. I am too.
