Experience the Difference

At our forest retreat, we believe that true healing comes from a deep understanding of your unique constitution and a commitment to providing personalised care. Let us guide you on a journey of self-discovery and transformation, where you'll emerge feeling refreshed, revitalised, and deeply connected to your inner self.

Our dedicated team at the Schönau Forest Resort warmly welcomes you. Our journey began 24 years ago in Sri Lanka with our beach resort, and the planning, supervision, and execution of your treatments here follow the same time-honoured principles.

Under the guidance of Sri Lankan and Indian Ayurvedic specialists, you will find authentic Rasayana or Panchakarma treatments for prevention, healing, and rejuvenation.

Your journey to wellness should be seamless from start to finish.

Whether you're arriving by air, rail, or bus, we're happy to arrange a convenient pick-up service to whisk you away to our tranquil retreat.

Just let us know your travel details, and we'll take care of the rest.

We understand that leaving your furry friend behind during an Ayurvedic retreat can be heart-wrenching. That's why at our resort, we warmly welcome your four-legged companions! We have specially designated rooms where your beloved pet can stay by your side, completely free of charge. After all, true rejuvenation includes the comfort and joy of having your best friend nearby.

Our expansive resort offers a wealth of secluded spaces where you can unwind and allow the benefits of your treatments to unfold.

It is in these moments of quiet reflection, surrounded by nature's embrace, that the true magic of Ayurveda takes hold.

The therapeutic effects of your treatments gently guide your body back to its natural equilibrium, restoring the balance of your vital energies, the Doshas, which may have been disrupted by the stresses of modern life.

Whether you prefer the restorative Rasayana or the deeply cleansing Panchakarma, our expert team will guide you every step of the way. Your progress is assessed daily, and your treatment plan is adapted as needed to ensure you reach your unique health objectives.  

Find tranquility in our winter garden, savor delicious meals in our restaurant, and experience deep relaxation in our treatment area, featuring a large relaxation room – all designed to allow the benefits of your therapies to unfold fully. 

In the heart of the Bavarian Forest, it's easy to leave everyday life behind and fully embrace the beneficial impulses of the Ayurvedic cure.

Whether from the balcony, the restaurant or the winter garden - the view always wanders over the gentle hills and dense forests, allowing nature to become a source of inner peace.

Unwind in our comfortably appointed rooms, designed to be your home away from home. Each room offers a private en-suite bathroom with a shower, toilet, and washbasin, providing all the necessities for a relaxing and convenient stay.

Our spacious treatment areas are designed to enhance the restorative power of our therapies.

Guests can relax and allow the treatments to work their magic in a peaceful and private setting.

Especially during the winter, this sanctuary of tranquility is essential for deep relaxation and rejuvenation.

Five times a week, yoga and meditation will complement your Ayurvedic treatments, inviting you to find serenity in our bright and welcoming winter garden.

With panoramic views of the surrounding forests, this time becomes a balm for body and mind.

And even after the exercises, the winter garden is available as a retreat where you can continue to enjoy the relaxation and connection with nature.
