About this place
The Pozas de Hervideros thermal springs, studied in 1882 by explorer Antonio Raimondi, emerge on an arid clay plain 12 km from Zorritos. These geothermal upwellings maintain an average temperature of 30 °C with continuous natural gas emanations. Their sedimentary muds are rich in sodium chloride, magnesium, iron oxides, and sulfates, granting notable exfoliating and dermatological qualities.
How to get there
Take the detour inland from Panamericana Norte near Zorritos, 12 km along unpaved track (approx. 20 minutes by mototaxi or car).
