Termas Los Peucos is a sulfurous hot spring resort in Chile, nestled in the Andean landscape where the peucos — Chilean hawk species (Parabuteo unicinctus) that give the resort its name — soar above the geothermal valleys of the Chilean cordillera. The resort harnesses naturally heated sulfurous volcanic mineral waters from the Andean geological system, channeling them into bathing pools set amid the dramatic mountain scenery of the Chilean Andes. The sulfurous spring waters are enriched by volcanic minerals from deep Andean geological processes, and visitors come to enjoy the warmth and the striking mountain setting in a long-standing tradition of Andean thermal bathing.

Insider tip — Termas Los Peucos is a sulfurous thermal spring in the Biobio Region of central Chile, situated in the Andean foothills where volcanic activity maintains the geothermal gradient. The waters emerge around 39°C with a distinct sulfur signature reflecting the active volcanic arc to the east. Dense native forest of coihue and arrayán surrounds the site, creating a deeply immersive natural setting. Visitors seeking traditional Chilean termas experience will appreciate the rustic, undisturbed character of this location.
