Hotel Nesslerhof, Austria Shows Off Ice Bathing & Breathwork Retreat
As we head into the winter months Hotel Nesslerhof in the Austrian Alps has showcased the wonderful Ice Bathing & Breathwork Retreat available on property.
Nestled in the picturesque Großarl valley, the 5-star Hotel Nesslerhof sets the stage for a transformative 3-day ice-bathing & breathwork experience led by expert Edith Aigner. Here, modern luxury, warm family owned and run hospitality, and Alpine serenity come together to unlock a calmer mind, a stronger body, and a deeper sense of presence. Under expert guidance, guests will step into crystal-clear 6 °C mountain water and harness the invigorating power of cold exposure - boosting immunity, sharpening focus, and strengthening stress resilience. Breathwork, mindful movement, and yoga sessions inspired by the Wim Hof Method ground guests in clarity and reset the mind and body from the inside out.
Between cold plunges, retreat into Nesslerhof’s expansive Luxury Spa: panoramic indoor and outdoor pools, a natural swimming pond, five soothing themed saunas, and over 100 bespoke treatments in the light-filled beauty salon. In the Culinarium, full-day gourmet dining awaits from a healthy breakfast to an evening locally-sourced tasting menu, with food partners all sourced from the valley.
