Tucked away in Furnas valley, you'll find a truly special spot where you can soak in naturally heated, iron-rich thermal pools.

The place is a maze of five open-air pools, surrounded by tropical plants and the sound of running water, creating a peaceful escape.

It's particularly magical in the evening when the paths and pools are softly lit, allowing you to relax under the stars.

TIP: Avoid wearing white when visiting hot springs and thermal baths due to many of them being rich in minerals. The iron, sulfur, and other minerals present in the waters can stain light-colored clothing, and white is particularly susceptible. Over time, these minerals can settle into the fabric and become challenging to wash out completely. The minerals can also generate the elasticity of swimwear over time, so consider using older or dedicated swimwear when frequenting these hot springs and thermal baths.
