Muiño da Veiga Hot Pools

The Pozas de Muiño da Veiga are natural thermal pools located on the banks of the Miño River in the province of Ourense, Galicia. This area offers a natural setting where thermal water emerges at over 70°C and mixes with the cold river water, creating several pools with varying temperatures that allow for a relaxing bath in the heart of nature.

When visiting the pools, you can enjoy a river landscape with native vegetation and the constant sound of flowing water. The natural pools are formed by rocks and earth, without artificial structures, preserving an authentic experience in direct contact with the environment. It is common to see local visitors and tourists seeking a moment of rest and wellness.

Historically, the Ourense region is known for its thermal waters, used since Roman times for their therapeutic properties. The Pozas de Muiño da Veiga are part of this Galician thermal tradition, where hot underground water naturally surfaces, promoting health and relaxation.
