Is the sauna a textile-free area?
Our sauna can only be used without textiles for various reasons. Firstly, hygiene plays an important role, as synthetic swimwear releases harmful substances in the heat of the sauna. Secondly, sweat gets into the water when swimming in the swimming pool, which is not nice for the other guests in the swimming area. In addition, sweating without swimwear is also healthier, as the clothing prevents the sweat from evaporating from the skin.
