Beer Spa in the Beskydy Mountains

The novelty of the mountain Bahenec Wellness Hotel, which is situated in the area of Slezské Beskydy, in the town of Písek u Jablunkova, is the Beer Spa.

The amicable environment is suitable for families with children and clients seeking calm, woodsy surroundings and mountain ridges perfect for taking walks as well as more difficult hikes throughout the year.

Whereas Cleopatra used to bath in milk, guests in the mountain hotel Bahenec spoil themselves with a beer bath called Bier-Bottich-Bad. Since as early as the Middle Ages, bathing in a yeasty beer has been known to have healing powers and to be a great prevention against diseases. This is because beer sediment and beer yeast are natural therapeutic agents, provided that the right temperature and duration of the bath, as well as the correct amounts of ingredients, are maintained. Both agents cleanse and purify the body through the pores in the skin. The Bier.Bottich.Bad beer bath is beneficial for everyone. People with skin problems are enthusiastic about it, and even people suffering from poor blood circulation in their limbs speak highly about the effects of the bath. Nevertheless, most important is the delight the bath gives you: as you sit in the tub, you can have a beer that you pour yourself directly from the tap – isn’t that great?

The entire procedure, which also includes a Finnish sauna and, following the beer bath, relaxation on a bed of oat straw, takes about two hours. The Bier Bottich Bad (BBB, Beer Tub Bath) recipe was conceived by the Austrian hotelier Hedwig Bauer and is a protected secret.
