Full calendar, neverending to-do lists? Day-to-day life is often quite demanding. To retain the upper hand, just dive in and leave it all behind you.
The JUFA Hotels Rauszeit Specials make it easy: Spread your towel out on the shore, feel the warmth of the sun on your skin, and dive into the refreshingly cool water in one of the sunbathing areas directly adjacent to the hotel or at the lake, which is just a few minutes away. Your choice.
Swimming in the lake is fun for the whole family!
