Tips

Claudia KemPino

October 20, 2023

This water treading area is located directly opposite the hiking car park in Ulfen. Ideal for refreshing yourself after a lovely hike on Premiumweg 20, especially in hotter temperatures.

Treading water is Sebastian Kneipp's most famous water treatment.
Stimulates the circulation, promotes blood circulation, strengthens the veins, helps against varicose veins, works against hot legs, promotes sleep when used in the evening, helps with migraines, stimulates the metabolism and strengthens the immune system.
Short instructions: The stork walk goes around the pool. You have to lift your leg completely out of the water and press the tip of your foot down. The reasonable duration of such an application is between 30 seconds and 3 minutes. You should stop before the cold becomes unpleasant.
Then wipe off the water with your hands and after treading water you should move around a bit.

If you hike a lap on the premium hiking trail 20 in Ulfen, you can cool your feet after a hike opposite the hiking car park, to the east next to the sports field, in the beautifully landscaped water treading area. There is a rustic rest bench next to the water treading area.
