WARMBATHS
INTRODUCTION
To adventurers and
explorers travelling North of Pretoria during the last century, a rolling cloud
of steam rising over the veld was the telltale sign that they were nearing the
hot mineral springs known as Het Bad ("the bath"). Today Warmbaths is
one of the best known holiday and health resorts in the country. The mineral
springs at Warmbaths bubble out of the earth at approximately 22 000 liters per
hour and the waters (temperature 49 °C) are rich in dissolved salts.
Pleasant, mild winters and an average of 286 sunny days every year make
Warmbaths your ideal holiday destination.
