Thermal baths in Valais with children – relaxing family time in Leukerbad
Especially in bad weather, thermal baths are one of the most pleasant solutions for families.
Warmth, water and exercise help children to relax – and parents too.
Leukerbad boasts three thermal baths, making it ideal for families with children. All are located close to each other and can be visited spontaneously – a great advantage on rainy, snowy, or cold days.
Why thermal baths work so well with children
Thermal baths are ideal in bad weather because they:
function regardless of the weather
Combining exercise and relaxation
suitable for different age groups
They do not require long stays – one can also stay for a short time.
This flexibility is especially crucial when you have children.
Leukerbad Thermal Baths – quiet, spacious & relaxed
The Leukerbad thermal baths are the largest of the three thermal baths and have a particularly calm and spacious feel.
Well suited for:
Families with children of all ages
longer bathing stays
Parents who value peace and quiet
The spacious layout means everything is well distributed, making it a very pleasant place to stay, even with children. From thrilling slides and a sports pool to a pool bar, and not far from the baby pool, everything is available for a longer stay for the whole family.

Therme 51° – modern & manageable
The Therme 51° is smaller, more modern and very easy to navigate.
This is precisely what makes them interesting for families who prefer something a bit more compact.
Ideal if:
when you only want to go in the water briefly
Sauna-goers
Overview is important
The clear structure provides security – especially with younger children.
