At the foot of Cerro Polques lies Termas de Polques, a small 29.4°C hot-spring pool, and an absolute paradise after the chilly salar nights. Although they’re not boiling by any means, they’re suitable for bathing, and the mineral-rich waters are thought to relieve the symptoms of arthritis and rheumatism. There’s a restaurant here, and changing sheds with toilet facilities.
