of this province, which is characterized by its ecological
beauty.
Its name comes from the fact that in the immersed Forest,
there are deposits of thermo-mineral Waters. These waters
are in their natural state, contained in small swimming pools
designed and constructed according to the nature. These pools
offer the client an atmosphere of peace, calmness, and rest,
complementing this relaxes with a Natural Aromatic Sauna,
