Termas de Fiambalá

Termas de Fiambalá is a thermal complex in the Andes mountains consisting of 14 natural pools arranged in cascades with temperatures ranging from 28 to 51 degrees Celsius. The site sits around 1,500 meters (4,900 feet) elevation and draws water from mineral springs heated by underground geothermal sources.

These geothermal springs formed over thousands of years through geological processes beneath the earth's crust. Local communities have drawn on the warm waters for health and comfort since ancient times.

The thermal waters form part of local wellness traditions where people come seeking relief from joint pain and skin concerns using natural remedies. Visitors experience these pools as a gathering place where the healing properties of mineral-rich water connect them to generations of local practice.

The thermal complex sits roughly 14 kilometers from Fiambalá town and is accessible via a paved road in good condition. On-site facilities include cabin rentals and camping areas where visitors can stay overnight to enjoy the pools at their own pace.

The 14 pools sit at different elevation levels, allowing hot water to flow naturally downward and gradually cool as it travels. This means visitors can move from steaming hot pools at the top to comfortably warm ones further down.
