Thermal baths and water parks in Poland

The tripto catalogue lists 14 thermal baths and water parks – from the largest indoor water park in Poland to small pools fed by geothermal and mineral water.

Suntago Park of Poland in Wręcza, about 50–60 km from Warsaw, is the largest indoor water park in Poland: 32 slides, the longest 320 metres, thermal pools and a sauna zone for over-16s. In Podhale, Chochołowskie Termy is the largest thermal pool complex in the region, with water from more than 3 km down and views of the Tatras. Termy Maltańskie in Poznań has 18 pools fed with geothermal water from a depth of 1,306 metres. Kraków Water Park, opened in 2000, offers ten slides with a total length of more than 800 metres. Termy Uniejów on the Warta uses brine from more than 2 km down, and the Solec-Zdrój Mineral Baths use sulphide water at 35–36°C from the Malina spring.

Most places in this category are in Lesser Poland (5, including the Podhale baths in Chochołów, Bukowina, Białka and Zakopane), followed by Masovia and the Łódź region.

In practice: prices depend on length of stay and day of the week – an hour usually costs 40–75 zł, and an unlimited stay at large baths 110–190 zł; weekends cost more, and every extra minute is charged. Children under 3 usually enter free. Thermal baths are open all year and make a good plan for winter and rainy days.
