Bertholdbad, situated in the scenic town of Baden-Baden, is a gem for family fun that offers both an indoor pool and a heated outdoor pool, ensuring that the joys of swimming can be enjoyed year-round. Whether taking a dip in the pleasantly warm water on a chilly day or splashing in the sunlit outdoor pools, families find an inviting atmosphere that caters to both the playful tots and the more professional swimmers in the family.

Best Time to Visit

Bertholdbad is a comely escape for families aiming to splash and unwind. The ideal time to visit with little ones is during the warm summer months, from June to August. The balmy weather makes it perfect for children to frolic in the water and for parents to soak up some sunshine.

For a day trip, aim for midweek visits. The crowds are thinner, giving your family more space to enjoy. The sweet spot for visiting is late morning, after the rush of early birds but before the afternoon wave.

A weekend getaway can be delightful, too, but for a tranquil experience, consider dipping into the baths on a Saturday morning. The pools are serene then, and your family can have a blissful start to the weekend immersed in the soothing waters of Bertholdbad.
