Cajamarca - Inca Bath

INCA BATHS, CAJAMARCA

Inca

At a distance of 6 km eastwards from the City of Cajamarca along a paved road, one arrives at these hot springs, which were enjoyed by Inca Atahualpa when the Spanish Conquistadores arrived. This is a unique place, as it is rather surprising to learn of the variety of minerals contained in its waters. At the Inca bathing place (2,667 m.a.s.l.) the so-called Poza del Inca (Individual Inca Bath) has been preserved intact, as well as the stone canals and some fountains dating back to those days. New pools have been built both for groups and individuals, to which visitors have access. Residents comment on the medicinal or healing properties of these waters, with a temperature of about 70° C. In effect,  they are considered ideal to treat some bone diseases and to relax.
