After skiing or hiking, in both summer and winter, the sulphurous waters are the ideal way to relax and recuperate.
Ideal after a day of strenuous effort, as well as for skin problems and rheumatism, the virtues of the thermal springs have been recognised for centuries—the waters were known and sought-after even in Roman times.
Dorres' Baths
Open-air bathing
Built outdoors among the trees, with a sumptuous view of the peaks of the Eastern Pyrenees, Dorres' Baths hot spring baths offer nature lovers a moment of pure rest and relaxation. Whatever the weather, the water is always at 38 °C in the two outdoor pools, soothing tired muscled even when the ambient air drops below freezing in winter. The warm feeling persists long after you finally decide to dry off!
A hot bath in a granite pool
The two outdoor baths (one old, one new) are complemented by two antique baths carved into granite blocks. They are sheltered by a small building closed-in on three sides. After a day of hiking or skiing at the local resorts, a one-hour bath in the Dorres thermal springs will sooth away the aches and pains of the most hardened of athletes.
Llo's Baths
Nestled between the mountains and the river, Llo's baths offer lots of facilities for your well being, including a sauna, hammam, jacuzzi, and individual treatments.

Saint-Thomas' baths
Hot springs on the road to Andorra
Located 25 km from Escaro on the way to Andorra, St Thomas' Baths are located in the municipality of Fontpedrouse at 1156 meters altitude. They include three pools fed by a source gushing-out five hundred litres per minute at 58 °C.
This water is pre-cooled in an ultra modern heat exchanger system with no mixing with cold water, allowing the temperature of the water to be varied and adapted to the climatic conditions. Generally the water is graduated to 36 °C in summer and 38 °C in winter. This exceptional spring has analgesic, relaxant, antiallergic and healing properties.
The pumps can fill the pools in a dozen hours, and the water is completely renewed in this way twice per day. In a stone amphitheatre, you'll discover a leisure area with a small pool for toddlers, a lagoon for deep relaxation, and a jacuzzi area with water jets for the fun of it. All this in a pleasant mountain setting - don't miss it!
