Termas Aguas Calientes Valdivia

Panguipulli, in the Los Ríos Region of southern Chile on the Lake Panguipulli shore in the heart of the Chilean Lake District, is surrounded by an extraordinary concentration of turquoise glacier-fed lakes, volcanic cones, and old-growth temperate rainforest — the Siete Lagos (Seven Lakes) district whose volcanic and glacial landscape has been compared to Swiss and Norwegian scenery but retains the wild character of the southern Andes wilderness. Termas Aguas Calientes Valdivia draws on sodium-rich volcanic geothermal waters from the volcanic geology of the Mocho-Choshuenco volcanic complex above the Panguipulli lake shore, offering outdoor thermal pools set in the temperate rainforest above the lake where the extraordinary biodiversity of native Coigüe beech, Alerce giant cypress, and Copihue national flower creates a botanically exceptional natural spa setting. The Mocho-Choshuenco volcanic cone hiking, the Panguipulli Lake kayaking and fly-fishing culture, and the traditional Mapuche Huilliche cultural heritage of the Los Ríos lake district communities create a richly natural, volcanism-shaped, and culturally layered spa destination in the southern Chilean Lake District.
