Spa near Leiden: a holistic experience in nature
Fancy a spa day near Leiden? Dankjewellness is the outdoor spa with a holistic approach, just a 5 minute drive from Leiden. But it is not just any spa.
Not your average spa
Between the meadows and the grazing sheep just outside Leiden, you will find a holistic spa that is anything but standard. Dankjewellness is not about luxury treatments, but entirely about finding calm, recharging and recovering. And all of that in the open air.
So Dankjewellness is not your average spa. What you will find here are traditional wood-fired saunas and ice baths, and you can join rituals and workshops. Pure relaxation in nature, where body and mind get the chance to recover: that is what Dankjewellness is about.
Why a spa experience near Leiden is more than relaxation
A visit to the spa near Leiden does more than relax you: it also has proven health benefits. Scientific research shows that regular sauna visits reduce stress, improve circulation and even contribute to better resistance.
The difference is also in the surroundings: there are no luxury indoor spaces here. Instead you enjoy all spa activities in the open air, with a view of the polder. Add workshops such as breathwork, ice baths or full moon rituals and you have the perfect combination of nature and relaxation.
What can you expect from this spa in Leiden?
At Dankjewellness you put together your own spa day. You can choose a social sauna session, a sauna infusion, an ice bath combined with breathwork, or join the FireMiBo: Friday afternoon drinks around the fire, without alcohol but with warmth, connection and relaxation. Everything here is about recovering, recharging and connecting. With yourself, or with others.
How do you reach us from Leiden?
Dankjewellness is located at Polderpad 8, at De Tuin van de Smid. From the centre of Leiden it is only a 5 minute bike ride. Coming by car? Park at the Vrouwenweg, Melchior Treublaan or Tuinvereniging Cronesteyn. From there it is a 10 minute walk to our spa in nature.
What do you bring to the spa in Leiden?
Because swimwear is required, you need swimwear, two towels (one to dry off with and one to sit on) and flip-flops. A bathrobe and a water bottle are handy extras. Pro tip: leave metal jewellery at home, it gets very hot in the sauna.
