Chochołowskie Termy, Thermal water park in Chochołów, Poland
Chochołowskie Termy is a thermal water complex in the village of Chochołów in southern Poland, featuring a large network of indoor and outdoor pools filled with naturally heated mineral water. The facility includes saunas, relaxation zones, a sports center, and areas designed for families and adults seeking rest in warm thermal pools throughout the year.
The underground thermal spring was discovered in the early 2000s during deep drilling that reached more than 3,000 meters (about 10,000 feet) below the surface near the Tatra Mountains. The facility opened soon after to make use of this mineral water, becoming one of the larger thermal complexes in southern Poland.
The thermal park brings together local families and visitors seeking relaxation in naturally heated water drawn from deep beneath the Tatra foothills. Guests often spend hours moving between indoor and outdoor pools, pausing to rest on sun loungers or warm up after winter sports in nearby mountain resorts.
The complex stays open throughout the year and welcomes guests every day, including holidays, with access to both indoor and outdoor pools regardless of season or weather. Visitors should bring swimwear, a towel, and consider arriving during weekday mornings to avoid larger weekend crowds, especially during school holidays.
Outdoor pools remain open during snowfall and allow bathers to soak in warm water while watching winter storms roll over the nearby peaks of the Tatras. The normobaric pressure chambers offer therapy sessions while guests look out through floor-to-ceiling windows at the forested slopes and mountain ridges beyond.
