Description

Piscinas de Sal is the only salt mine in the world located in the crater of an extinct volcano, where the salt density exceeds that of the Dead Sea. The pink-purple lagoons allow you to float effortlessly as if on a cloud—even those who cannot swim will experience an extraordinary feeling of lightness.

The historic mine with its 19th-century tunnel, railway, and rusting machinery is a reminder of the days when the cable railway transported 25 tons of salt per hour. The mineral-rich waters detoxify, exfoliate the skin, and boost metabolism, while mud baths enhance the relaxing effect.
