Environment Outdoor

Soaking together in naturally heated geothermal pools outdoors, surrounded by volcanic or mountain landscapes — mineral-rich water and open skies make for perfect restorative relaxation.

The Essentials

  • Rinse off thoroughly before entering the water — most hot springs require it, and it keeps the shared water clean for everyone.
  • Ease in slowly rather than plunging, since geothermal pools often run hotter than a home hot tub.
  • Limit soaking to 10-15 minutes at a time and step out to cool down if you feel dizzy or overheated.
  • Drink water before and after soaking — the heat and minerals dehydrate you faster than you'd expect.
  • Remove metal jewellery beforehand, since sulphur-rich water can tarnish or discolor it.
  • Skip alcohol beforehand and check for open cuts or skin conditions, since the heat and minerals can irritate broken skin.
