Kneipp, Sauna, Aktivarium & more – all included
Bad Faulenbach has been known as a health spa since the 19th century. The natural mineral springs, pure mountain air and historic Kneipp facilities make this district the ideal destination for health travelers. Aktiv Hotel Schweiger is right in the middle – surrounded by nature and within walking distance of all health facilities. Sebastian Kneipp himself worked in the region and shaped the water therapy tradition that continues to this day.

With every overnight stay at Aktiv Hotel Schweiger, our entire wellness area is included. Daily from 3:00 to 7:00 pm, you have access to: • Finnish sauna (80–90°C) • Steam bath with herbal infusions • Aktivarium – a unique experience pool with various water temperatures and massage jets • Relaxation room with panoramic views The Aktivarium is the centerpiece of our offering and unique in the region. It combines elements of Kneipp therapy with a modern spa experience.
Plan Your Health VacationJust a few minutes walk from the hotel, you'll find several public Kneipp facilities that are freely accessible. The most well-known one is located directly on the Faulenbacher stream with treading pools, arm baths and barefoot courses. Kneipp's applications are based on five pillars: water, movement, nutrition, medicinal herbs and life balance. Combined with our sauna area and daily hikes in the Faulenbacher Valley, you effortlessly cover three of these five pillars.

Kneipp treading pools, arm baths, alternating showers – water applications strengthen the immune system and stimulate circulation.
Daily hikes, bike rides or yoga – moderate exercise in nature is medicine for body and soul.
Our breakfast buffet offers many regional and healthy options. The region's restaurants focus on seasonal Allgäu cuisine.
The herbs in the Faulenbacher Valley, herbal infusions in the sauna and teas in the fireplace bar – herbs are everywhere.
