This place has pools that are a foot and a half deep, and you can easily immerse yourself and relax in the pools after a cold journey through the mountain roads. The serene jungles, with their birds in colorful plumage, offer you an ideal backdrop for a day’s relaxation under the sun. The stones inside the hot springs are quite slippery, so it is really good to wear shoes in the water.

Nice dip in the hot springs, would recommend to go higher up, water is warmer and also there are fewer people which feels a bit cleaner as not as many people dipping their feet in the water.
