Termas de Puritama

You are given the option to begin this half day trip either at 9:00 AM or 2:00 PM in San Pedro de Atacama. Once all travelers are assembled, you will make your way to the Termas de Puritama. From the Andes mountains to the Puritama Hot Springs, the underground water streams constantly increase their temperature due to their prolonged contact with heated volcanic materials. They finally come to the surface in the Puritama River, where they create eight natural pools that are accessible to you.

The hot springs are surrounded by lush vegetation and hills. Legend has it the surroundings have healing properties that will refresh you. Not only will you be able to enjoy a pleasant and relaxing bath, but you will also benefit from the purity and good qualities of the water. After your visit to the hot springs you will return to San Pedro de Atacama, where you will safely arrive around 1:30 PM or 6:00 PM depending on your departure time.
