Fitness holidays and yoga retreats on Sylt

If your New Year's resolutions have always included more exercise, but you haven't really gotten going, or rather, you haven't gotten off the ground, here's the inspiration you need. A little loving push, so to speak. Naturally, completely informal and stress-free. Nobody needs that, especially when it comes to sports and exercise. In addition to offers for getting started with sport, we have the most moving events, tours and courses A motivating follow-up offer is also part of a lively start, whenever you want to do it. Perhaps you are working on the Sylt Run or the Run around the Rantum Basin Then the island holds with over 200 kilometers of track enough training routes ready. This way you have sightseeing included. Or you can use the island-wide fitness studios (this also works perfectly in the hotels), try out the variety of courses at the Syltness Center or climb the heights of the Funsporthalle. From the idyllic sunrise meditation on the Wadden Sea to the Yoga session on the beach, on the SUP or in the soft sand, especially when it comes to yoga, the island leaves nothing to be desired. But skiing, we really have to leave that to our colleagues from the Alps. You can live with that, right?

With variety and vision, for back and stomach, against stress and tension.

Syltness Center

Sporting variety with sea views

Yoga with a view, jogging in seawater, Zumba to Rumba – at the Westerland Syltness Center, you'll find more classes than you could dance, walk, or cycle through in one vacation. Spread across approximately 5000 square meters, you'll find programs for strength, endurance, and relaxation – flooded with light, with ocean views, and short walks to a sauna or wellness treatment afterward. When the sports center high above the dunes opens its large glass doors, you'll support your immune system with every breath you take during fascia training and indoor cycling. And the pleasantly temperate North Sea water of the Sylter Welle is ideal not only for swimming sessions but also for what is probably the most gentle way to jog on the joints – with music and motivating guidance. For beginners and advanced alike, aqua fitness is a true maritime pick-me-up. Licensed trainers pay close attention to the individual needs of participants in all sports – so you can use your vacation to try out new disciplines or continue your training at home. Whether it's a single lesson, a 6-lesson card, or a full fitness day—decide your workload daily. Increase your workouts? Not out of the question.

Our tip

Fitness course in the southern forest

Who hasn't heard of the good old fitness trails? Jogging in the woods and doing exercises in between – this tried-and-true principle has now been taken to the next level by TSV Westerland. The exercises at the 10 stations on the fitness course in the beautiful southern forest of Westerland are explained via video. These can be easily accessed via QR code. Those without a cell phone can also orient themselves using the exercise photos on the pillars.

Sports pool in the Sylter Welle

Indoors and flooded with light, with a water temperature of 26 degrees Celsius, it's perfectly suited for winter and kind to the skin thanks to its seawater filling. Five 25-meter lanes, a three-meter diving platform, a one-meter springboard, and five starting blocks delight athletic swimmers, while meter-high leaps perfectly complement the Westerland family and leisure pool Sylter Welle with its whirlpool and wave pool landscape and diverse slide tower. The 14 by 25-meter pool starts at a depth of 1,80 meters and drops to 3,80 meters – a real challenge even for divers. You can swim in the Westerland dunes every day – and then boost your immune system in the spacious sauna area. Whether you're swimming at the early morning swimmer rate or during the evening happy hour, or are a regular guest with a family holiday ticket – this pool in the North Sea offers all-weather athletic training for all abilities.

Funsporthalle Wenningstedt

Indoors and outdoors, vertically or horizontally, with climbing shoes, inline skates, or a skateboard. And whatever you don't have in your luggage, you can simply rent. For you or your children, who are guaranteed to enjoy the sporting variety. And if Sylt is missing mountains, you'll find what you're looking for in the bouldering landscape, which offers a variety of routes from child's play to "absolutely impossible, right?". Indoors and outdoors, strength, coordination, and creativity are equally required. Those who prefer kickball or moving around with large balls will also find their El Dorado here – and usually suitable teammates, too.
