Termales de Chiguará are natural bicarbonate- and calcium-rich thermal springs in Mérida state, Venezuela, in the Chiguará valley of the Venezuelan Andes where hot spring water has been used by the local Andean farming communities for therapeutic bathing and agricultural purposes for generations. The springs, in a productive agricultural valley known for its dairy farming and traditional Venezuelan Andean culture, offer an authentic rural thermal experience far from commercialised resort facilities. The surrounding Mérida Andes landscape, with its páramo grasslands, cloud forests, and traditional whitewashed colonial villages, provides a picturesque Andean Venezuelan context.
