Termales de San Juan de Arama Natural Hot Springs
These natural thermal springs sit in the eastern plains of Meta, offering several pools of varying temperatures ranging from warm soaks to properly hot therapeutic waters. The complex has basic facilities including restrooms, changing areas, and designated camping spots under scattered trees. Gets busy on weekends with families from Villavicencio, but weekdays offer a quieter soak after long days on the llanos backroads.
Access via paved road from San Juan de Arama town, then 8 kilometers of good gravel. The springs operate year-round, though water levels can vary during the dry season. Small entrance fee covers day use; camping requires separate payment to the local community that manages the site.
