I breathe...
Relaxation for the airways and the soul
The mine railway takes you quickly and comfortably into the mountain. Once in the Climate gallery area, we start with warm-up and breathing movements to activate the airways. Afterwards, warmed by blankets and hot water bottles as well as tea made form local herbs, you can relax and take a deep breath of the mine's soothing air.
Cave therapy is known in technical jargon as speleotherapy. Our gallery's special microclimate and the constantly cool, humid and pure air all ensure relaxation and recuperation for the airways, with noticeable relief even for chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma, bronchitis and sinus ailments. Many years of experience have shown that the best results are achieved when the tunnel air is allowed to act on the respiratory tract for around two hours a day over two weeks.
Treat yourself to this moment - take a deep breath and unwind.
