Recharge your batteries in special natural places
-------------------------------------------------

Strength lies in tranquillity.

Water, air and forest. You can find peace and quiet and replenish your energy reserves at special power spots in the great outdoors. These power spots are within easy walking distance of the Riverresort Donauschlinge, the Wellness Oasis Aumühle or the Revita Hotel Kocher.

Moss-covered granite formations in the forest, picturesque river courses and breathtaking viewpoints capture the energy of nature. Many of these extraordinary natural and cultural jewels have been used as places of worship for centuries and still magically attract people today, such as the Stillensteinklamm gorge near Grein.

Feel the four elements
----------------------

Wellness - what does that actually mean? Bathing, saunas, massages - yes, of course! But not only that. Along the Danube, holistic relaxation takes centre stage. The **four elements** also play an important role here: **fire**, **water**, **earth** and **air** can be felt in the wellness oases of the Upper Austrian Danube region and promise carefree feelings of well-being at an affordable price.

 Nothing helps us on our way better than a break.
