Colpa Aguas Termales, in the Huánuco region of Peru, taps bicarbonate thermal water at 38°C. Indoor pools, sauna and massage round out this wellness stop in the heart of the Peruvian Andes.
Insider tip — Colpa Aguas Termales emerges in the Huanuco department of central Peru at roughly 2600 m, in the transitional zone between the high Andes and the Amazonian cloud forest. The springs issue from carboniferous limestone formations that concentrate bicarbonate mineralization, giving the water a clean, slightly effervescent quality. The lush cloud-forest setting, with tree ferns and mossy rocks, provides a dramatically different atmosphere from the open altiplano springs further south.
