It is a pleasure to take off your shoes, step barefoot and feel the ground under your feet. Not only pleasure, it is also healthy.
Think about the last time you walked barefoot, and we do not mean at home on gleaming parquet, but on a meadow or forest carpet. Walking barefoot is one of the most effective natural body therapies. We will take you in the footsteps of Kneipp’s five pillars for maintaining body and mind health: water, herbs, exercise, diet and a healthy lifestyle. Sebastian Kneipp was a German priest and water therapist (1821-1897). His philosophy of life is simple and appropriate for each of us.
Walking barefoot is one of the most effective natural body therapies. Allow us to take you into the unspoiled nature of the Tuhinj Valley to experience a connection with nature on the Kneipp Barefoot Trail. A virtual walk is available HERE.
The experience program includes:
• Introduction to Kneipp's philosophy of life
• Natural reflexology massage
• Kneipp hydrotherapy trial
• Delicious Kneipp surprise (Kneipp snack)
• guided relaxation
• Test of all five senses (smell, sight, hearing, type and taste)
• 2-hour ticket for swimming in the pools with healing thermal water
The barefoot path will awaken all your senses. Participants will initially walk barefoot on a short barefoot trail to warm up, and from here on the 3.2 km long themed trail, awarded in 2018. The barefoot trail is equipped with twelve training elements. The path runs through meadows, sand, through the forest and other natural materials. The small muscles of the foot will strengthen on the softness of grass, bark, earth, sand, even on river stones. Along the way, you can also perform other Kneipp therapies in the natural environment, such as stork walking and hand bath. Together, we will discover the beneficial effects of herbs on our own herb garden. On the way, you will also find a delicious snack of exclusively local delicacies.
So take off your shoes and let nature fill us with energy, invigorate and rejuvenate us!
After the barefoot experience, which lasts two hours without swimming, we recommend swimming in indoor and outdoor pools with healing thermal water and a delicious vital lunch at the Potočka restaurant.
The number is limited to a maximum of 15 people. The minimum number to perform is 3 people. The barefoot experience is also suitable for children over 6 years old. Children from 6 to 11.99 years have a 50% discount on the experience, and teenagers from 12 to 17.99 years have a 20% discount.
