Río Jordán Hot Springs
Discover a natural wonder in the heart of the Yunga jungles in the province of Jujuy.
Would you like to find a crystal-clear world among the lush jungle? Come to Río Jordán hot springs in the city of San Francisco, at 1,000 metres above sea level. Did you know that the water turquoise colour stems from the amount of mineral in the bottom? Plunge in and enjoy the benefits these sulphate, sodium, and chloride water bring to your health.
Do you know the path to explore the hot springs? The indigenous community locals will welcome you as soon as you get there. One of them will be your guide and accompany you in an eight-kilometre walk through natural paths. After you cross the Jordán river, you will find the gorge where the hot springs will be waiting for you. Enjoy this experience in the province of Jujuy.
