How to Drink Properly — Drinking Cure

1. Drink slowly — in small sips, not all at once
2. Quantity: 2.5–3.5 dl per dose
3. When: Morning on an empty stomach and afternoon (twice daily)
4. How long: Ideally 15–21 days for full effect
5. Temperature: Room temperature (not ice-cold from the spring in winter)
6. Cup: Bring your own or buy a ceramic one on site

Spring Trail Route

We recommend visiting the springs along the Cross Path between Springs — an educational trail that takes you through all the main springs and interesting places in the park. Route length: approximately 2 km, easy, suitable for all age groups.

Start at Jurkovič House → Ottovka → Vincentka → Aloiska → Dr. Šťastný → Nový Jubilejní → Sv. Josefa. From Hotel Vincent, it’s a pleasant 15-minute walk to the start of the trail.
