Discover the Termas de Copahue, a natural thermal spring located in the northwest of Neuquén Province, Argentina. Soak in the sulfurous waters, rich in minerals and heated by geothermal activity. This unique destination offers a chance to relax and rejuvenate in a breathtaking setting. Explore the surrounding landscape and immerse yourself in the local culture.

Insider tip — The fangos (muds) of Copahue form from the acidic volcanic springs of the Andean Patagonia, their ochre-grey color and sulfurous scent creating a wholly unique sensory experience. The site sits inside a volcanic caldera at over 2,000 m altitude — pack warm layers for after your soak as temperatures drop quickly at elevation.
