Papallacta thermal hot springs
Papallacta is a small and rustic village located over 3.300 meters above sea level (10.800 feet), on the 65th KM (40 th Miles) at the eastern side of Quito, in a humid montane forest, on the road which leads into the Ecuador Amazon Rain Forest; it only takes 2 hours to get there. It is surrounded by beautiful landscapes and the majestic Antisana.
The most important touristic attraction of Papallacta is its thermals, the best hot springs of Ecuador, with temperatures at their origins from 30 to 70 ºC (86 and 157 ºF). These waters have been put into pools, where the temperature fluctuates between 36 and 42 ºC (97 and 108 ºF).
