Les Bains de Saint-Thomas

Les Bains de Saint-Thomas in Fontpédrouse, Pyrénées-Orientales, are fluoride-rich thermal springs in the Conflent gorge country of the French Pyrenees, where a thermal spa complex has developed around springs emerging at the base of dramatic red granite cliffs above the Têt River. The fluoride-rich waters are part of a long thermal tradition associated with well-being, and Saint-Thomas has operated as a recognised thermal station since the nineteenth century. The spa's extraordinary natural setting — in a red porphyry gorge through which the historic 'Little Yellow Train' of the Pyrénées railway passes — makes Les Bains de Saint-Thomas one of France's most scenically spectacular thermal destinations, combining thermal tradition with exceptional Pyrenean mountain landscape.
