Sole Felsen Welt: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the water naturally thermal?
Not in the geological sense. Sole Felsen Welt heats and enriches its pools with Bad Ischl healing brine at about 1.5% salt rather than drawing hot water from a deep borehole, so the appeal is the salt content and the granite rock setting.
What does a visit cost?
A bathing day ticket at Sole Felsen Welt starts at EUR 21.50, the sauna world combination at EUR 37.50 and a four-hour ticket at EUR 22.90. Holders of the Niederösterreich-CARD enter free.
Does it work for families?
Yes. Sole Felsen Welt has indoor and outdoor children's pools at 32 to 33 °C with slides, reduced family tickets and a 28 to 30 °C sports pool with three starting blocks for lane swimmers.
Where exactly is it?
Sole Felsen Welt stands in Gmünd in the northern Waldviertel, on the Czech border side of Lower Austria, directly beside the Asangteich. That puts it roughly two hours from Vienna, so most guests combine it with an overnight stay.
How does it compare with Therme Laa?
Price and water type separate them. Sole Felsen Welt is a brine bath with roughly 1,000 m² of water and tickets from EUR 21.50, while Therme Laa uses a 42 °C natural thermal spring and charges EUR 41.00 for a five-hour day ticket.
