Fitness and recreation in Vrnjačka Banja

Here are the places in Vrnjačka Banja to train indoors with an instructor: pilates, fitness and group classes. They are meant for guests who stay longer than a weekend and do not want to break their routine, and for those who come to the spa several times a year. For walking, hiking and running outdoors, see nature and sport.

Hera Pilates Studio on Olimpijska street, in the Raj neighbourhood, near the aqua park, offers reformer pilates in groups of up to three and individual sessions. A single group session costs 1,500 dinars and an individual one 6,000 dinars. The studio is part of FITPASS, with a surcharge per session, and the first session is free.

Sessions are by appointment, so book ahead by phone or on Instagram. Hera Pilates Studio is open on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 16:00 into the evening, and on Tuesday and Saturday mornings. If you are in the spa for a week or less, a monthly package rarely pays off: ask about single sessions and check whether a discount or a trial session is on offer.

After a session it is easy to stop at one of the spas that sell day passes, or go for a swim at the pools and aqua parks. The Raj neighbourhood is about ten minutes on foot from the centre, so a session fits easily into a day in the spa.
