Water profile
Stimulating — wakes the body and boosts circulation.
Loaded with major ions — the essential minerals (Ca, Mg).
Dense, salty water — you float without effort.
Hidden along the remote coastline of Aysén, deep in Chilean Patagonia, this natural thermal spring emerges directly at the water's edge where the Andean wilderness meets the Pacific fjords. Its setting is among the most dramatic on the continent — glacial peaks, dense temperate rainforest, and the stillness of largely uninhabited channels define the landscape surrounding this remarkable geological phenomenon.
The water, a sodium-chloride spring at a pleasantly mild 26 °C, carries a characteristic mineral salinity reminiscent of the sea itself. At a near-neutral pH of 7.3, it is gentle on the skin, making immersion here a quietly invigorating experience. The confluence of warm mineral water and the cold Patagonian air and seawater creates a sensation entirely unique to this corner of the world — an encounter with raw nature at its most elemental.
