Los Pozones Hot Springs is home to six stone pools of different depths and varying temperatures. Surrounded by forests and a rushing river, the pools are set amid gorgeous natural scenery. Relax in the warm water and stay until evening to sip wine beneath the night sky.
Many people enjoy the soothing warmth of the baths after arduous hikes in the mountains. Spend a little time in each of the pools, which gradually increase in temperature.
Sink into the peaceful springs and forget about everyday life. The pools are enclosed by large rocks and surrounded by countless trees. On winter days, it can feel surreal to lie in hot water while snow covers the picturesque environment.
Revel in the views and listen for the sound of the flowing Liucura River below. After exploring the various hot baths, cool down by taking a dip in the cold river. The facility also has showers, where you can wash and get refreshed. Change in the quaint cabins above the pools.
Remember to bring your bathing suit, dry clothes and towels. Take your own drinks and snacks and be careful of your belongings as there are no lockers provided.
