Pilates holiday in the Black Forest: movement and wellness at Lake Schluchsee

Anyone who wants to combine a wellness holiday in the Black Forest with movement will find at the Auerhahn a changing activity plan with classes such as Yoga, Aqua Fitness, Mobility, Stretch & Relax and – depending on the week – Pilates. The sessions can be combined with sauna, pool and time outdoors at Lake Schluchsee.

This is not a retreat with several guided hours a day. It is a stay in which movement can have a place.

Pilates in the Auerhahn activity programme

Depending on the current weekly programme, Pilates can be part of the changing activity plan at Hotel Auerhahn. Guests should check the current plan before their stay or at reception. An hour that is not on the plan this week cannot be inferred from a blog text.

When a Pilates session is scheduled, it takes place in the yoga room. Mats and props are ready; you do not need your own mat. The session lasts 45 minutes and is also intended for beginners. That is the format of the hour, not a promise that it sits on every morning of your nights.

Yoga on the same plan looks more to breath and mobility. Pilates, when it is on the week, is the one hour on the mat, not a course over the whole weekend.

Movement in the morning, wellness afterwards

A day with movement has one hour and then air. If Pilates is on the plan in the morning, nothing follows that asks for the same work again at once. A walk by the lake is enough if the weather holds. In the afternoon sauna, brine pool or the indoor pool with counter-current system are in the wellness area. In the evening the seasonal menu at the restaurant.

On a rainy day the path outside falls away. Pool and sauna remain. See the article Black Forest in the rain.

Two nights are a quiet pace: arrive, the mat the next morning if the plan provides it, then the spa. The stay needs no more programme.

What else is offered on the activity plan

The plan changes from week to week. Besides Pilates, Yoga, Aqua Fitness, Mobility or Stretch & Relax may be on the programme. What actually sits in your week is not fixed in this list. The examples only show which kinds of sessions occur in the house.

Day Spa guests can join if a session is on the plan that day. The Day Spa costs €65 per person, 9 am to 6 pm, bookable at most two weeks in advance. Participation depends on the day’s offer, not on the ticket alone.

Check the current weekly plan

The current plan is posted in the house and can be asked for before arrival. One line in the enquiry is enough: that you would like to use Pilates and on which days you are here. Then it is possible to say whether a session falls in that period.
