Laguna Badeland, Water park in Weil am Rhein, Germany.
Laguna Badeland is a water recreation center in Weil am Rhein, a town in southwestern Germany near the borders with France and Switzerland. It has a wave pool, a sports pool, several water slides, a whitewater river section, outdoor pools, and a large sauna area.
The water park was built as a modern leisure project serving the tri-border area where Germany, France, and Switzerland meet. Over the years it has been gradually expanded to keep up with the demand for recreation in this cross-border region.
In Germany, sauna bathing is part of everyday leisure culture, and that shows clearly in this water park's extensive sauna area. Visitors move between different sauna types at their own pace, in line with the unhurried approach typical of German bathing culture.
The facility has both indoor and outdoor areas and is open year-round, so a visit is possible in any season. Since the grounds cover several distinct zones, it helps to arrive with enough time to move through them comfortably.
Weil am Rhein sits right at the point where Germany, France, and Switzerland meet, which means many visitors to this water park cross an international border to get there. On any given day, the changing rooms and pools are shared by people from three different countries.
