Hot Springs Tarapaya Lagoon - Chaqui
Half Day
Tarapaya Thermal Springs - Tarapaya Lagoon

We also offer Tarapaya and Chaqui thermal baths. Belief in the curative powers of the Laguna de Tarapaya, the most frequently visited thermal spring in the Potosí area, date back to Inca times. It is said that the Inca Huayna Capac would come all the way from Cuzco in present-day Peru, to bathe in its waters. We offer a tour to this natural lagoon. It is located at 21 km from the city and is of volcanic origin. In the centre of the lake, the temperature of the water rises to 30°C. The Inca Huayna Capac discovered the lake and also tiled its edges, giving it a circular form. You can take a relaxing bath in its waters.

Chaqui Thermal Springs
At Chaqui, the climate is considerably more agreeable than in the city of Potosí. At the Chaqui resort, you will also be able to buy high quality handicrafts, such as weavings and blankets. You can stay at the resort’s hotel, where you can use the pool and sauna.
