Summer break
Dear friends of the Lorrainebad sauna
Sauna heat, cool Aare and lovely people – winter was beautiful. It ended for us on March 24 and we are making way for spring and summer at the Lorrainebad. The bathing season starts in mid-May.
Many thanks for the unforgettable encounters. See you again on the sunbathing lawn or next winter (from the end of October 26) in the flickering light of the sauna stove in the Lorrainebad. Next winter our yurts will be set up again at the Lorrainebad.
