Piscina termale Mataranka

La piscina termale di Mataranka è il luogo ideale per rilassarsi.

Si dice che le calde acque cristalline della piscina naturale abbiano il potere di lenire dolori e dolori dopo una lunga giornata in viaggio.

L'acqua è alimentata dalla sorgente, gorgogliando a una temperatura abbastanza costante di 34 gradi Celsius. La corteccia di carta e la foresta di palme circostanti filtrano il sole e lasciano una luce morbida e screziata che gioca sulla superficie dell'acqua. L'area intorno alla piscina è un terreno fertile naturale per la piccola volpe volante rossa. La stagione riproduttiva va solitamente da novembre a maggio, ma spesso si estende nei mesi più secchi.

La piscina termale Mataranka potrebbe essere inaccessibile a volte a causa di inondazioni tra i mesi di novembre e aprile.
