Hotel with outdoor pool

The DIEDRICH Wellnesshotel & Spa in Hochsauerland is a hotel with an outdoor pool. Heated and with a picturesque view: The swimming pool is designed as an infinity pool, where you can enjoy the view of the valley for many hours of the day and where the sun shines for a long time.

The 20-metre x 5-metre infinity pool rises four meters above the existing hotel building, offering a special bathing experience. From the edge of the infinity pool, you can look out over the Hallenberg valley and enjoy the rising sun - pure romance. Around the pool you will find a cozy spot where you can make the most of the beautiful weather in Hochsauerland - both in the shade and in the sun.

A wellness hotel with outdoor pool for a summer destination

We love what we do. Our hotel, our everyday life, our region. Especially in winter, the Sauerland is popular with many guests for a wellness vacation. Images of snow-covered landscapes quickly come to mind. Nothing goes better with this than a relaxing break in the warmth. Let your gaze wander from the heated outdoor pool into the coolness of winter, enjoy the pleasant heat in the sauna or dine to the crackling of the fireplace. Yes, the Sauerland is almost perfect for a wellness vacation in winter.

But what many people don't know is that it is also beautiful here in the warmer months.

Here in Hochsauerland there are many lush green meadows where horses, sheep and cows graze contentedly. There are gentle mountains, which are sometimes strenuous to climb, but offer a wonderful view of the Sauerland from many places. Hiking routes mark out the landscape and give an impression of the diversity of the region. There are lakes all around, such as the Edertalsperre, the Hillebachsee or the Weddelsee. All have their own attractions - water sports, idyllic fishing paradises, beaches and picturesque shores. There are sights, monuments and lively culture. Just think of the open-air stage, where the Passion of Christ is performed every ten years, the small ice museum or the Kump with its interesting exhibitions in the town center. Despite everything, the Hochsauerland is still an insider tip for a relaxing wellness vacation in summer.

Your wellness vacation at the hotel with heated indoor and outdoor pool

At the DIEDRICH Wellnesshotel & Spa, the hotel's focus is on wellness and relaxing moments are the order of the day - exactly how it feels best for you. For this reason, there are various retreats, cozy corners and lots to discover in our wellness hotel.

The wellness area includes a light-flooded indoor pool, which looks a little like a Roman thermal bath and which we therefore affectionately refer to as a columned pool. On two levels around the indoor pool, you have the opportunity to choose your favorite lounger and relax here while enjoying the view outside.

Hotel with heated outdoor pool and sauna area

Interplay between cold and heat

In addition to the swimming pool, the sauna area includes a Finnish panorama sauna with a large window, another Finnish sauna, a steam bath, a Tecaldarium, a Swiss stone pine sauna also with a view outside and our snow grotto, where you can cool off perfectly - perfect on hot days or after a sweaty sauna session. Here you can experience every temperature in a new way. There is also a large lounge area between sauna sessions and a relaxation area where you can enjoy the reflections of the water from the pool above through a round glass peephole. An incomparable feeling of space that has a decelerating effect with its gentleness. The heated outdoor pool is probably the most striking feature of our wellness area. Here you can relax and enjoy the moment on hot summer days. The pool is heated, so the water temperature of the infinity pool is always pleasant and invites you to swim in the heated water all year round.

Pamper your body - actively and passively

Interplay between movement and relaxation

Exercise - or at least an exercise program - is also part of a wellness vacation. Work out in our fitness room, take part in yoga or meditation classes in our Haus der Mitte or in fitness classes in the large fitness room. All course rooms are bright and have windows so that you can be additionally motivated by the sun during morning exercise or enjoy the light of the colorful twilight in the evening.

Of course, you can still pamper your body with a treatment. Whether it's a relaxing massage, a soothing facial treatment or an Ayurvedic ritual, it's easy to enjoy the moment and get away from it all. In our treatments, we use natural cosmetics that are good for your body in the long term.
