Showers & Hot Baths

Being a volcanic region, Pucon boasts a multitude of thermal springs.

However, before we could enjoy the environment of  relaxation promoted, we had to endure a severe soaking in the heaviest rain we have experienced here to date......

But, it was a price worth paying to enjoy a hot bath outside in the continuing rain, sharing the whole resort with just a couple of American students and an ageing hippy/philosopher!

In fact, the rain added to the whole experience, particularly since it was not that cold when we emerged from our wallowing in these natural hot tubs.

Bathing in the rain

The setting was quite amazing, with a river closely raging past and all around a beautiful steep valley sporting its Autumn colours.

Yours truly enjoying a hot bath
Beautiful Autumn Setting
