Lonely Planet review for La Piscina de La Virgen
This is the best-known bath in Baños, the only hot pools in town. There are three altogether: one is cold, another is warm and a third reaches nearly 48°C (118°F), making it a truly scalding experience. The best time to hit the pools is in the early morning when there are fewer people. If you're curious, ask the basket woman to show you the ojo del agua, where the water, heated by the volcano, gushes from the earth at a scorching 50°C (122°F)!
