Nestled between the Cayambe and Antisana volcanoes, Termas de Papallacta Spa is a privately-owned resort spanning 625 acres (253 hectares) of lush landscape. Accessible via a scenic drive from Quito through the Amazon rainforest, the spa offers several natural thermal baths, where visitors can soak in the warm, mineral-rich waters. The property also features nature trails that wind along the banks of the gentle Papallacta River, providing a tranquil setting for relaxation and rejuvenation. Today, guests can enjoy a day of pampering while surrounded by the serene beauty of the Ecuadorian highlands.
