The Source de Groesbeeck in Spa, Belgium, is one of the naturally carbonated iron-bearing mineral springs that made the Belgian Ardennes town of Spa the world's first internationally celebrated health resort, and whose name became the universal English term for wellness establishments. The Groesbeeck spring, accessible from the Spa town centre via the historic promenade routes through beech and oak woodland, produces naturally sparkling ferruginous water appreciated within a long thermal tradition associated with well-being. The surrounding Ardennes landscape of rolling wooded hills, the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps Formula 1 racetrack, and the elegant Belle Époque casino architecture of the town combine to make Spa one of Belgium's most distinctive and historically layered destinations.
