## Who they are

Termas Outariz is a private thermal facility on the banks of the Miño, on the outskirts of Ourense, whose whole approach is based on the Japanese bathing tradition blended with Galician thermal culture. The website belongs to Ibernisha S.L. and names Pablo Villuendas as director, author of an essay on Japanese bathing culture presented at the International Thermal Tourism Congress in Mondariz in 1999. The website itself makes clear that the centre is for leisure only and offers no therapeutic treatments.

## The waters and the circuits

The water emerges at 61 °C. The website describes it as weakly mineralised, bicarbonated, sodium, fluoride, lithium and sulphurous. There are two routes:

Celtic Circuit, inspired by the hillfort settlements, with stone pools and moving water: jets, bubbles and waterfalls, designed to release muscle tension. For safety, you must be at least 1.50 m tall to enter the Celtic Spa.

Zen Circuit, Japanese-inspired, with still water and a construction of wood and oval stones, designed for relaxing and meditating.

Separately there is the Family Onsen, an area divided from the circuits by a bamboo screen, which is hired privately for groups and celebrations. On the upper floor there is a bar with a terrace, serving sandwiches, salads and Japanese soups, plus a menu of teas. They also offer relaxation and beauty treatments and gift vouchers.

## Prices, hours and rules

A single entry costs €6.95 and entitles you to 2 hours in the thermal area, of which a maximum of 90 minutes in the water, from the moment you are given the ticket until you return the locker key. If you overstay, another entry is charged. For regular visitors there are monthly passes (individual, pensioner and family) with a €25 joining fee. Towels (€4), flip-flops (€4), swimsuits (€2.20) and bathrobes (€4.80) can be hired, but the website warns that when demand is high towels and bathrobes are not guaranteed: it is better to bring your own. Card payments have a minimum of €10.

The published opening times for November 2026 are 10:00 to 23:00 on Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays; 10:00 to 01:00 on Fridays; 09:00 to 01:00 on Saturdays; and 09:00 to 23:00 on Sundays. It is closed on Tuesdays. You must be out of the water half an hour before closing.

The rules: shower with soap before entering, flip-flops on the routes, a towel on loungers and in the sauna, and no running or swimming. Children under 5 may not enter; for ages 5 to 8 you must prove their age, and under-14s must be accompanied by an adult. Animals are not allowed, except guide dogs, and entry is not recommended for pregnant women or people with certain heart, respiratory or skin conditions.

## Booking and getting there

Entry cannot be booked: you go in on a first-come basis and, if it is full, a waiting list is opened. Groups of more than 20 people must write to reception beforehand. You can go on the thermal baths train (urban transport line 19), which runs along the bank of the Miño, or on bus line 5 to Reza, crossing the white footbridge over the river on foot. By car, the website recommends the Reza car park, on the other bank, because the Muiño da Veiga one is closed for roadworks. The website is only in Spanish.
