A unique thermal heritage: the naturally hot waters of Chaudes-Aigues
It's impossible to discover tourism in Chaudes-Aigues without taking an interest in its most emblematic treasure: its natural hot springs. This charming village in the Cantal region, nestling in the heart of the Auvergne, is famous for its 30 thermal springs, whose temperature ranges from 45°C to 82°C. The most famous? The Source du Par, with an impressive temperature of 82°C, making it the hottest natural thermal spring in Europe!
These waters, rich in minerals (bicarbonate, silica, fluoride, etc.), are renowned for their analgesic and muscle relaxant properties, particularly in rheumatology. A stay in our hotel in Chaudes-Aigues is therefore an invitation to well-being, just a stone's throw from this geological wealth.
Wondering what to do in Chaudes-Aigues? Start with a stroll to the famous spring and be amazed by the natural fumes rising from the streets, an inimitable visual signature of the village.A unique thermal heritage: the naturally hot waters of Chaudes-Aigues
Géothermia: a unique museum in Europe dedicated to geothermal energy
Another not-to-be-missed tourist attraction in Chaudes-Aigues, the Musée Européen de la Géothermie et du Thermalisme - Géothermia - is a fascinating stopover not to be missed.

Géothermia is installed in one of the houses historically heated by this natural energy, on three richly documented exhibition levels.
