Aguas Termales La Musui is a sulfurous hot spring resort in Colombia, its name reflecting a local or indigenous geographical designation that anchors the thermal site to the cultural landscape of its Andean region. The spring produces naturally heated sulfurous mineral waters from deep volcanic sources beneath the Colombian cordillera, and the resort offers bathing facilities that make these mineral waters accessible to visitors and local communities within a long thermal tradition. La Musui represents the Colombian tradition of naming hot spring resorts after the local geography, landmarks, or family heritage of the surrounding community, creating destinations that are as much expressions of local identity as they are thermal wellness experiences.

Insider tip — Situated in the Venezuelan Andes near Merida at roughly 700 m elevation, Aguas Termales La Musui draws from a sulfurous geothermal source that surfaces at a consistent 38°C. The lush tropical setting features banana trees and cloud-forest vegetation typical of the humid Andean flanks. The spring pools have been informally developed by the local community with simple concrete basins and rudimentary changing facilities. Morning visits are recommended to avoid afternoon showers common in this high-humidity zone.
