Winter Offers
In addition to the Lobogó ski slope, Băile Homorod has a 100-metre-long toboggan run for children. The two types of activity can be considered separately when planning your winter trip, as a specific length and use by children are stated for the toboggan run. Horse riding is also among the leisure activities at Lobogó Resort. This means that winter-related and other leisure options with different focuses are available side by side in the resort.
Lobogó Resort has a swimming pool measuring 25 × 8.5 metres, with a depth of 1.20 to 1.40 metres. There is also a 5 × 3-metre pool for babies and toddlers. The separate dimensions and different age specification give you concrete points to consider when incorporating water activities into your daily plans with children.
When comparing a ski hotel in Băile Homorod, check your travel dates, room category and cancellation conditions on the respective offer page. These three details help you match the accommodation to your own travel plans.
Culture and History
The significant development of the Băile Homorod spa resort began in the 19th century. At that time, villas, restaurants, promenades and music pavilions were built around the springs. There are around 12 mineral water springs and fountains in the area of Băile Homorod. Among the best-known mineral water springs are Izvorul Lobogó and Izvorul Mária.
The mineral water of the Izvorul Lobogó spring is slightly carbonated, sodium chloride-bearing, alkaline, iron-bearing and hypotonic. The mineral waters of Băile Homorod were already known in Roman times. When considering the springs, you can therefore distinguish between the specifically described properties of Izvorul Lobogó and the mineral waters' more distant historical classification.
