Avalon Springs Hotel is a thermal resort in Montagu, a picturesque town in the Breede River Valley of the Western Cape, South Africa, nestled between dramatic red sandstone Langeberg mountain cliffs where bicarbonate warm springs flowing from the ancient Cape Fold Mountains have been used for therapeutic bathing since the late 19th century. The warm springs of Montagu, maintained at around 43°C and particularly valued for their effects on joint pain and muscle relaxation, have made the town one of the Western Cape's most beloved weekend thermal retreats for residents of Cape Town just two hours away. The surrounding Montagu district is one of South Africa's premier wine and fruit growing regions, famous for its Muscat wines, dried fruit production, and the stunning mountain scenery of the Langeberg — making Avalon Springs a destination that combines thermal wellness with the food, wine, and landscape heritage of the Cape Winelands.

Insider tip — The bicarbonate water of Avalon Springs Hotel is ideal for aiding digestion and softening the skin.
