Everyone who seeks deep relaxation should head to the four-star superior Hotel Pabst on the East Frisian island of Juist. Here, guests have the chance to choose from various wellness programmes that promise regeneration. Located between the city centre and the white sandy beach, Hotel Pabst is also ideal for tourists who simply want to take advantage of the beautiful setting. Since the only transport possibilities on Juist are horse-drawn carriages, one cannot help but slow down on this island. The area is great for running, participating in other sport and leisure activities, or strolling through the city centre. In 62 | Issue 44 | November 2016
