Hiking as a spa treatment

Karlovy Vary is a popular city not only because of its natural wealth of healing springs but also because of the typical spa architecture and picturesque natural surroundings. There is no better opportunity to actively spend your leisure time than in the time limited to relaxation. Hiking is also recommended by medical staff to include in your spa treatment.

Add hiking in the hotel surroundings to your spa treatment or just go for a short trip to admire the local natural beauty. And where to go on the trip? Hiking trails in Karlovy Vary are very well marked, especially you will appreciate the marking according to the difficulty of the route. If you find yourself as a beginner tourist, follow trails marked with green color. For intermediate tourists, trails are marked with blue color and for the advanced tourists with red color.

There are plenty of options for hiking trails. Why is it so important to include hiking into your spa treatment? Exercising on the fresh air inherently improves our health, speaking both mind and body. Regular hiking creates a better working cardiovascular system, oxygenation of the lungs, strengthen the muscles and stretch the tendons. Exercising also activates intestinal peristalsis and improves immunity. Also, it will improve your overall mood.
