Insider tip — Termas de Pompeya are hot springs located in the Argentine Puna (Salta), at high altitude (~3,800 m) near San Antonio de los Cobres. This village is known for the Train to the Clouds (Tren a las Nubes) which climbs to 4,220 m — one of the highest in the world. The Pompeya baths offer a unique soak in a windy, desert Altiplano landscape.
