A natural hot spring of sodium chloride spring water. With its mildly alkaline, gentle feel, it is expected to help relieve shoulder stiffness and lower back pain. In addition to the indoor bath in the large bath area, there is also an open-air bath, where you can enjoy a luxurious soak while taking in views of Huis Ten Bosch.
A dry sauna that uses far-infrared heat. The spacious room has a TV, and you can comfortably work up a sweat with the refreshing feeling of being in a forest bath. The heat transfers well, making it a satisfying setup for everyone from sauna beginners to advanced users.
A mist sauna that periodically sprays steam. The high humidity makes it easy to breathe, so you can warm your body thoroughly and gradually from the inside out. It gently washes away waste products along with your sweat.
A cold plunge bath located right next to the sauna room. The water temperature is mild and not too cold, making it ideal for cooling down slowly. After the cold plunge bath, you can enjoy an outdoor air bath on the deck chairs or benches in the open-air area while feeling the scenery of Huis Ten Bosch and the pleasant breeze.
