Thermal baths under the Tatras

Hot outdoor pools with mountain views. The best end to a hiking day, especially in winter.

Around Zakopane, warm water rises from deep under the mountains, and several towns have built thermal parks around it. You float in a hot outdoor pool while snow lies on the peaks around you.

Kids love the slides, grown-ups love the saunas. I pick the baths that fit your group and the quietest time to go.

Good to know

  • There are several thermal parks near Zakopane, among them Chochołów, Bukowina Tatrzańska and Białka Tatrzańska.
  • The warm water comes from deep underground springs.
  • They are open all year.

A question we often get

Which baths are best for families?

It depends on the ages: some have big slides and kids’ pools, others are calmer with more saunas. I pick the right one for your group.
