Thermes de Châteauneuf-les-Bains

Thermes de Châteauneuf-les-Bains is a thermal spa in a small town in central France, offering guests access to warm mineral-rich waters and therapeutic treatments. The facility features simple buildings designed for comfort and wellness, set within a natural landscape where visitors can bathe in pools of varying temperatures and receive massages and other water-based therapies.

The thermal bath has long been known for its healing mineral waters and has attracted visitors for generations seeking relief from joint pain and rheumatic conditions. Over the years, the facility has been updated and expanded its treatment offerings while maintaining its simple and natural character.

The thermal center serves as a place where people come to step away from daily routines and focus on caring for themselves. The modest setting reflects local values of simplicity and taking time to listen to one's body in a natural environment.

It is best to reserve in advance, especially during the peak season from mid-April to mid-October when most visitors arrive. Many treatments are medical cures that require a doctor's prescription, so planning ahead and checking with a physician is helpful before your visit.

The thermal center is next to a 2-acre arboretum planted with rare tree species including giant sequoias and cedars since the 1880s. Visitors can explore these grounds after their treatment, adding a botanical walk to their wellness experience.
