A thermal journey inspired by ancient traditions
Step into the sensorial world of Förena Cité Thermale, a sanctuary of harmony where ancestral rituals from Iceland, Germany, and Russia converge — each echoing a way of inhabiting the body, nature, and time.
A return to the origins
Nestled at the foot of Mont Saint-Bruno, Förena invites you on a voyage beyond the ordinary spa experience. Here, you are immersed in the essence of three great thermal cultures — each a reflection of a timeless way of life, rooted in ritual and reconnection.
At the heart of this journey are the Aufguss rituals — immersive ceremonies of heat and purification. Guided by practiced hands and choreographed movements, waves of aromatic steam carry you through a sensory voyage where presence deepens and breath aligns with the elements. Within each ritual, warmth becomes wisdom, and stillness becomes healing.
Extend the experience through a culinary interlude at the Förena restaurant, where each plate becomes part of the ritual — a nourishing pause to reconnect with yourself.
Inspired by the rhythm of the seasons, the menu highlights local ingredients, comforting textures, and delicate pairings. Herbal notes, smoky accents, mineral freshness — each dish is thoughtfully crafted to reflect the Nordic spirit of Förena and to gently anchor you in the present moment.
At the table, as in the saunas, time slows down. Every bite becomes an invitation to savour stillness — a sacred continuation of the thermal journey.
