Termas Geométricas threads a single red walkway 450 m along a steep ravine near Coñaripe, linking seventeen slate-lined pools fed by hot springs. Each pool has its own changing hut and its own water temperature.

Storia

Opened in 2004 to a design by the Chilean architect Germán del Sol, whose scheme deliberately left the ravine's vegetation and springs untouched.

Informazioni pratiche

Numbers are capped, so book ahead in the Chilean summer. Towels are available on site; the walkway is stepped and not step-free.
