BLEIB BERG F.X. Mayr Retreat in Detail
Your Fasting Retreat
The core of BLEIB BERG is the holistic F.X. Mayr concept, individually tailored through medical supervision. Gentle fasting, conscious movement, and targeted treatments promote sustainable regeneration of digestion, metabolism, and mental balance. This process is supported by the mineral-rich thermal water from the hotel's own spring and the unique healing climate of the mine, which demonstrably activates self-healing powers.
At BLEIB BERG, it's not just about detoxing, but about letting go of habits, tensions, and stimuli. From 9 p.m., silence is consciously maintained to create space for restful sleep, deep relaxation, and inner arrival. Deliberately, BLEIB BERG is an adults-only retreat.
Location & Surroundings
In the quiet high valley of Bad Bleiberg in Carinthia, nestled between Dobratsch and Erzberg at an altitude of 960 meters, the BLEIB BERG F.X. Mayr Retreat invites you to true relaxation and conscious regeneration. Surrounded by pure mountain air, untouched nature, and the unique healing climate of the mine, a place of power is created that harmonizes body and mind.
Whether hiking, cycling, or cross-country skiing - the alpine surroundings offer ideal conditions for gentle exercise and active relaxation. Away from everyday life, space is created for mindfulness, inner balance, and new life energy.
Dining & Leisure
At BLEIB BERG, dining becomes a conscious encounter with one's own well-being. Following the principles of modern F.X. Mayr medicine, relief, regeneration, and mindful enjoyment are at the heart of every meal. Whether gentle fasting or light, restorative cuisine, each dietary form is individually tailored to the health condition and medically supervised. A mindful service team, clear structure, and four finely graded nutritional stages support the body and mind on the path to greater lightness, activate the metabolism, and promote sustainable vitality.

Wellness & Spa
In the 2,500 sqm spa area of BLEIB BERG F.X. Mayr Retreat, tranquility, regeneration, and natural healing power converge. Indoor and outdoor pools filled with mineral-rich thermal water provide soothing relief for the body and circulation. Saunas, herbal steam baths, stylish relaxation rooms with mountain views, and a natural swimming pond in summer invite you to let go and recharge.
In the BLEIB GLÃœCKLICH Private Spa, exclusive retreats are created for personal timeouts. The BLEIB BERG weekly program with yoga, ice bathing, breathing exercises, and mental balance complements the offerings naturally. Beauty and detox rituals, from Hydrafacial to liver wraps, ensure noticeable vitality and a holistically good body feeling.
Health & Treatments
For over five decades, the Humanomed Group has stood for medical expertise and holistic health. This experience is also reflected at the BLEIB BERG F.X. Mayr Retreat.
Here, experienced doctors combine conventional medical precision with modern Mayr medicine. The goal is to identify physical stresses early, understand their causes, and promote regeneration on all levels: physical, mental, and emotional.
Diagnostic services range from laboratory analyses of blood and urine to the measurement of free radicals, functional myodiagnosis, and metabolic tests. The individually tailored therapies include medically supervised nutritional therapy, physical treatments, mental coaching, and sleep diagnostics.
For targeted regeneration and sustainable performance enhancement, state-of-the-art procedures such as (cold chamber up to -110°C), altitude training with CellAir IHHT technology, movement therapy, Aqua-Fit, yoga, and customised training plans are available. Massages, lymphatic drainage, hydrojet, and acupressure enhance circulation, metabolism, and detoxification. The holistic health concept is rounded off by the BLEIB BERG tunnel ritual, pure thermal water from its own source, and the unique healing climate of the tunnel, for profound recovery and new energy.
Free Time
Amidst expansive mountain meadows, fragrant larch forests, and the Dobratsch Nature Park, the BLEIB BERG F.X. Mayr Retreat offers the perfect setting to experience leisure time consciously and powerfully - unhurried, close to nature, and mindful. Gentle hikes, meditative walks, or yoga in the healing climate tunnel combine movement with regeneration. The crisp mountain air at 960 meters not only strengthens the cardiovascular system but also provides new mental lightness.
Here, every activity becomes a soothing ritual, every moment in nature an invitation to arrive at oneself without pressure, but with genuine depth.

Healing Climate Tunnel in Bad Bleiberg - Unique BLEIB BERG Experience with Tunnel Therapy
The high humidity of the healing tunnel in Bad Bleiberg and the consistently cool interior temperature create a unique atmosphere, enabling us to activate our respiratory self-healing powers: Airways become clear, each breath is experienced deeply and consciously. Tunnel therapy aids respiratory diseases and imparts the grounding sensation of being near a waterfall or mountain peak. The stay in the healing climate tunnel leaves a lasting impression of contemplation. An atmosphere we also experience during mountain yoga. In the complete silence and soothing air at the heart of the rock, we align body and mind with targeted breathing.
The Effects of the Healing Climate Tunnel
With its constant 8°C and 99% humidity, it has offered a recognized healing climate since 1998: A stay in the healing tunnel alleviates respiratory diseases, allergies, and stress.

The body can recover from burdens such as dust or pollen in the healing climate tunnel and strengthen the immune system. Tunnel therapy is suitable for chronic and recurrent respiratory diseases. Feel the effect with every calm breath and experience this special part of our programs STAY HEALTHY, STAY VITAL, STAY ACTIVE, and STAY STRONG.
