Warm mineral water emerges from a cave and tunnel at the head of the Tolantongo canyon and runs downstream as a bathable turquoise river, roughly 34–38°C. Terraces of small pools are built into the cliff face above it.

Почему стоит поехать
Bathing in a moving thermal river, and in pools set into a canyon wall, at a scale and setting that has no real equivalent in Europe.

История
The site is run as a cooperative (ejido) by the local community, which built and maintains the pools, bridges and lodging along the canyon.
Практическая информация
Cash is essential — card payment is unreliable and there are no banks nearby. Weekends and Mexican holidays fill the site; midweek is calmer.
Как добраться
About 4h30 by car from Mexico City via Ixmiquilpan; the final descent into the canyon is steep and narrow but paved.
