Sauna Aufguss - The Italian Way
In a conversation with Renato Sonego, President of the Associazione Italiana Sauna e Aufguss, you discover why not all Aufguss rituals are the same and what sets the different saunas apart.
Pure relaxation
Hot October
Sauna Escape in autumn
When October brings its first cool winds, things heat up at Hotel Schloss Seefels on Lake Wörthersee: Hot October – Sauna Escape promises an unforgettable wellness experience for all the senses.
Relax in peace on Lake Wörthersee
On two weekends in October, Italian sauna masters from the renowned Associazione Saune e Aufguss transform the exclusive sauna area at Schloss Seefels into a stage for artistic infusions, fragrant peelings, and soothing rituals. Over three days, guests enjoy a varied program that brings body and mind into harmony.
Let yourself be transported into the world of Italian infusion art — with aromatic scents, perfectly coordinated music, and masterful technique. Whether relaxing, revitalizing, or simply spectacular: every infusion is an experience in itself.
Hot October is the perfect opportunity to escape everyday life and treat yourself to a break full of warmth, tranquility, and indulgence — in the stylish atmosphere of Hotel Schloss Seefels right on the lakefront.
Aufguss programme the Italian Way with Renato Sonego from 16th to 18th October 2026
On the first two weekends of October, Rafaella will take over the Aufguss rituals, bringing a touch of Italian sauna flair to Seefels.

All in keeping with the motto: Hot. Hotter. Hot October.
