Refresh and Rejuvenate with The Power of The Alps

The Austrian Alps are the perfect setting for a spa retreat. Away from modern day stress, they are a great place to switch off and relax. The majestic snow-capped mountains provide stunning views, and the fresh alpine air is a tonic for the health. Meadows of alpine flowers provide the ideal ingredients for spa treatments, and the great outdoors provides a plethora of exciting activities from walking to hang-gliding during the summer and autumn months, to snow sports in the winter. Travellers who love getting back to nature will be in their element at an Alpine spa retreat and so will holiday-makers who take their health seriously and recognise the benefits of taking time out of their stressful lives. Skiers, hikers and other sports enthusiasts who love relaxing in a spa after a day of action will also find themselves right at home, as will those who simply enjoy luxurious beauty treatments. In the Alps you can truly get back to nature and rebalance mind, body and soul. The Austrian Alps are brimming with luxurious Alpine spa hotels, however, one which will fulfill the highest demands of pampering pleasure is the 5-Star Alpine Palace New Balance Luxury Resort in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, in the Salzburg province of Austria. What makes this hotel unique is its contrast between grand exuberence and close attention to the smallest of details, as well as a mixture of Austrian tradition and modern luxury. As you enter the vast entrance hall you will be struck by the impressive glass elevator which appears to be a waterfall. Go in further and you will notice stylish pieces of hand-made wooden furniture, made by the hotel owner’s son - look out for more throughout the hotel.
