Alhama de Aragón Spa

The Alhama de Aragón Spa is one of the oldest in Spain, but it has been fully renovated. Its waters have many beneficial properties for health, as they are bicarbonated, calcium, sulphate, magnesium and radioactive.

The temperature is maintained at 32 degrees and is ideal for balneotherapy, which is the use of mineral-medicinal water for therapeutic and preventive functions. It also promotes physical and mental wellbeing.

This spa has indoor and outdoor thermo-active pools, water circuits, steam baths, Templarium, Vichy, circular and Kneipp showers, among other thermal spaces.

All in an unbeatable setting and with a long history: it is said that the curative properties of its waters were already being used in the 11th century, with the Manantial del Moro (with fine rain that falls constantly from a natural grotto) and La Mora (with a restorative waterfall that is highly recommended for relieving stress), and that they were also enjoyed by the troops of El Cid.

The Alhama de Aragón Spa is also a good place for the whole family to enjoy and for the little ones to immerse themselves in a world that combines wellness, relaxation and fun, although they have limited access to the spaces.

Each pass to the Active Thermal Pool gives access for 45 minutes. This is a thermal water leisure centre with hydromassages, water beds, jacuzzis, counter-currents and jets at different heights. The water temperature is between 30 and 33 degrees. Remember that in this area it is forbidden to jump or dive in headfirst.
