In its long course, it creates many natural pools to bath that have been used since ancient times, as the two existing Inca houses, prove.

Raised boardwalks treat the riverside grasses gently, and reveal the unique beauty of the river's long winding course, and the pools in it.

Two basic white concrete structures house all the facilities, and make the wild nature of the place, stand out.
