BATHING REGULATIONS

On purchasing an admission pass to the KärntenTherme, operated by KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH (FN 143404 p), all visitors agree to adhere to the following bathing regulations:
 

1 Admission, opening times

1.1 Use of the KärntenTherme spa is only possible and permitted with a valid admission pass. KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH issues chip watches as admission passes and these record the rel-evant admission details relating to the use of the KärntenTherme, depending on the contract in question. The duration of use is based on the time of admission to the KärntenTherme (activation with chip watch) and the return of the chip watch on leaving the KärntenTherme. If the agreed duration of use is exceeded, an additional fee must be paid at the spa counter, based on the specified tariff.

1.2 Visitors (aged 4 and above) can log any refreshments purchased on their chip watch and pay for these at the spa counter on leaving the KärntenTherme.

1.3 The chip watch and receipt should be retained for the duration of the spa visit. On leaving the KärntenTherme, the chip watch should be placed in the designated container after payment of the logged total.

1.4 Loss of the chip watch must be reported to the spa counter immediately and the till receipt pre-sented. In the event of a chip watch being lost, the visitor will be required to pay EUR 15 for a replacement. Any refreshments already purchased using the chip watch will be automatically transferred to the new chip watch and the full total must be paid on leaving the KärntenTherme.

1.5 Children aged 13 and under are only permitted to enter the KärntenTherme spa if accompanied by a parent or guardian.

1.6 The opening times and prices for admission passes are displayed on the sign. Only one discount can be claimed at a time.

1.7 KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH is entitled to refuse admission to visitors where there is a good reason for this (for example, if the officially permitted number of visitors has been exceeded, the visitor in question is drunk or on drugs, the visitor has an infectious or unpleasant illness or the visitor has an ailment which could endanger the safe operation of the spa etc.)

1.8 Bikes, roller skates, inline skates and animals are not permitted. If prams are taken into the wet areas, the wheels must be covered with protective coverings which can be provided by the KärntenTherme. On busy days, prams are not allowed in the wet area.

1.9 The selling and gifting of vouchers to the spa area is not permitted.

1.10 An announcement will be made to indicate the end of the opening hours of the KärntenTherme. All visitors are required to leave the KärntenTherme on time and must not stay beyond the opening times.

1.11 The admission pass loses its validity on leaving the KärntenTherme (this does not include time value passes).


2 The facilities at the KärntenTherme

2.1 KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH enables visitors to use the KärntenTherme facilities at their own risk in line with the terms and conditions of these bathing regulations.

2.2 KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH works with its employees to ensure that visitors and other individuals on-site adhere to the bathing regulations, where possible. If any behaviour is identified which contravenes the regulations, the individuals involved will be issued with a warning and may be expelled from the site without the admission fee being refunded.

2.3 In the event of an accident, KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH will provide assistance without delay, where possible. Everyone is responsible for providing first aid.

2.4 In the event of an incident occurring in the KärntenTherme (accident, dispute, theft etc.), visitors are required to inform the spa supervisors immediately.

In the interests of the other visitors, recliners cannot be reserved at the KärntenTherme spa. All areas include lockers where towels, bags and other objects can be stored. Employees of the KärntenTherme are instructed to remove any towels from reserved recliners. These towels can be collected from the counter.

2.10 Please note that, during stormy weather, swimming and use of the outdoor pool, the linked (indoor and outdoor) pools and the slides is prohibited. In stormy weather, KärntenTherme BetriebsGmbH will close the outdoor pools and linked pools and slides to prevent their use by visitors.

2.12 Visitors are prohibited from throwing away or leaving behind any objects which could cause accidents or from bringing any hazardous or flammable substances into the spa.

3 Supervision of children, disabled people and guests unable to swim

3.1 Those usually responsible for looking after children, disabled people and guests unable to swim (for example, parents, guardians or carers) are also required to supervise them in the spa area. These guardians or carers are also responsible for this supervisory role before entering the spa site or on leaving the site early.

3.2 Young people and their guardians are required to respect the youth protection regulations and in particular the prohibition on alcohol and smoking.

3.3 For group visits (for example, school children or clubs), the responsible supervisor (in the case of school children) or official (in the case of clubs or organisations) ensures that the bathing regulations are observed and that the normal operation of the spa is not interrupted by the group visit. With school visits in particular, the supervisor is responsible for ensuring that order is main-tained in the changing areas. Communal changing room areas are available, separated into the different sexes. Supervisors are required to be present for the duration of the group visit and hold full responsibility for ensuring that the regulations are observed.

3.4 The sports pool at the KärntenTherme is divided into swimming channels for the use of clubs, school parties and other group visits.

4.3 If the bathing regulations or terms of use for specific facilities (for example, slide, river, sauna, solariums) are not observed or instructions given by employees of the KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH are not followed, KärntenTherme Betriebs GmbH is entitled to evict the individuals in question from the KärntenTherme without refunding the admission cost, if there are sufficient grounds to do so. In special cases, these individuals may also be prohibited from entering the spa in the future.
