Auster Sport- und Wellnessbad

Important Notice Please Read

Swimmers Guide is not connected with any of the facilities listed on this site in any way. We cannot tell you the pools’ opening and closing times or when Senior Aerobics classes are held; we cannot tell you about the availability or cost of swimming lessons; we cannot get you discounted admission to swim at any of them; and we cannot help you find your children’s lost goggles or bathing suits.

We can and do try to give you reliable information about the pools, their locations, their admission policies, and their single-visit or casual swimming prices. Where possible, we include hypertext links to the pools’ own official websites and Facebook pages, clickable email addresses, and links to the websites of the clubs and teams that swim there. Look to those resources within each listing for more detailed information.

The data in the site is under continual review and is revised whenever the site’s editor becomes aware of a change, but, with more than 20,000 listings, a complete, periodic review of every listing takes about seven years to complete; in many places, prices will change four or five times before we have a chance to check the pool’s official website again.

For that reason, we ask for your help: If any of the information in the listing is incorrect, out of date, or could be improved, please tell us. There is an "Edit" button on just about every line of every listing, click on the edit button to tell us what needs to be changed. (No, it's not a place for you to ask us questions. What we have in each listing is the latest news we have.)

Also, please consider checking the listings of the pools you regularly use at home or when traveling, as your knowledge may be helpful to someone else who is unfamiliar with the area and visiting for the first time. Just go to the Add a Pool section of the site, read the first page, then fill out the questionnaire.

Facility Notes

There is also a 50m, 8 lane, 26°C (78°F), outdoor, summer pool pool at this location.
This is the only FINA-certified, public, 50m, indoor pool in Austria.
During summer, the pool is closed for two weeks (usually in August) for maintenance, but the outdoor pool is open at that time.
If you arrive before the special evening tariff goes into effect, you'll be charged the full-day rate at entry. Then, if you leave within two hours, you show your ticked and they will refund the difference between the full-day price and the two hour price.
The facility uses a wrist-band, electronic key system. There is an additional €0.10 charge for the band, which is refunded when you turn it back in.
Based on the pool's schedule, shown on the PDF attachment available on the Bahn- und Beckenreservierungen page of the pool's website, Lanes 0 through 3 are set aside for diving and recreational swimming; Lanes 4 through 9 are for laps and swim teams. It is worth mentioning that most of the time, Lanes 4 through 9 are reserved for teams, so visitors will want to check that schedule carefully.
Information about all of the municipal swimming pools in Graz, both indoor and outdoor, can be found HERE.

Facility Reviews

One of the best pools in Europe! Usually not very crowded. Nice facilities - the building was finished April 2011, so you can expect state of the art. Fees are high, but you'll get what you pay for!
