1 HOLIDAY – 8 MONTHS RECREATION

Finally breathe again in hotels at over 1,000 meters altitude

Breathing the mountain air is healthy!

Awake with a glimpse of an excellent mountain panorama – so start your holiday. But staying in the mountains not only guarantees a spectacular view, but also promises positive effects on health!

There are a lot of polluting substances and pollen in the air, which is especially useful for allergic patients and asthmatics. According to studies, mountain air should have a positive effect on the level of blood and heart. For example, researchers found a decrease in pulse and hypertension among mountain travelers. This effect is expected to last eight months after staying in the mountains, starting at a height of 1,000 meters!

If we were able to arouse your interest and would like to receive further information or pictures of the individual hotels, please contact us by phone on +49 (0) 89/18 97 78 66 or by e-mail becker@strombergerpr.de
