Holiday apartments - holiday houses - Hotels - Ski resort

In the places of Bad Gastein, Bad Hofgastein and Dorfgastein in Salzburg (state), which all belong to the Gastein Valley, you can enjoy eventful holidays. All these places offer hotels, holiday apartments and chalets of varied price categories.

Whether summer or winter holiday, in the Gastein Valley and the surrounding mountains you experience an overwhelming nature with an interesting animal and plant world.

The National Park Hohe Tauern is an eventful hiking paradise. But also other sports such as Nordic Walking, bicycling, riding or swimming can wonderfully be exercised in the Gastein Valley. Spend a relaxing day on a romantic bathing lake or visit the “Alpenbad” in Dorfgastein. The Alpen Therme Gastein has a particularly high recreation value.
The hotels, holiday apartments and chalets provide for the evening relaxation.

The Gastein Valley is an Eldorado for cross-country skiers. Well-groomed ski runs let stir the skier’s blood. Blue sky, sunshine and powder snow are the right thing for skiers and snowboarders. But also without boards you can enjoy the winter world. Winter wanderings, ice climbing, rides with the horse-drawn sleigh, ice skating tobogganing let your holiday become an experience.
Different mountain huts, hotels and restaurants offer a traditional cuisine. Holiday apartments and chalets, or a quaint holiday house provide for a cosy evening.

Pain-free, naturally Heilstollen eases pain for rheumatic patients

The results of a fibromyalgia pilot study support the beneficial effects of Gastein Heilstollen Therapy.
For those afflicted, literally everything hurts. Fibromyalgia syndrome refers to a chronic, non-inflammatory
disease of the musculoskeletal system. Hard to diagnose, it is equally as hard to treat. Traditional pain killers and anti-rheumatic drugs generally don’t work, whilst the usual therapies have also proven unsatisfactory.
With Heilstollen Therapy, it is possible to break the vicious cycle. The results of the pilot study: reduction
in pain, decreased exhaustion, less need for medication! “We work through a combination of hyperthermia and radon absorption via the lungs and skin. On the one hand, this leads to decreases in
pain messenger Substance P, with additional positive benefits through increased endorphins and improved
serotonin metabolism”, explains chief physician of the Heilstollen, Dr. Elena-Doina Martea.
The number of fibromyalgia patients who come for Gastein Heilstollen Therapy is increasing steadily.
Word has got around that this therapy works. These sensational results will be followed by additional studies.
