Chochołów Thermal Baths — What's Included in Your Ticket
Pools & Water Attractions
Chochołów Thermal Baths features over 30 pool basins filled with mineral water sourced from a depth of 3,600 metres. The complex includes indoor and outdoor pools, jacuzzis, geysers, a fast-flowing river channel, artificial waves, hydromassage stations, and a sandy relaxation area. Waterslides, pontoon slides, a sports pool, and a children's water playground are included with standard pool entry.
The famous rotating pools — a distinctive circular outdoor design where a gentle current carries bathers continuously around — are one of the most popular attractions at Chochołów and are included with standard entry. Outdoor pools are open year-round: bathing in warm mineral water surrounded by snow-covered Tatra peaks in winter is one of the signature experiences at the complex.
