About
Therme Pautalia is a summer mineral-water complex in the town of Kyustendil, at the foot of the Osogovo mountains, covering over 10,000 m². According to the operator, the mineral water is 74 °C at the source, with a hydrogen sulphide smell, and the complex is not a water park in the true sense.
The complex has eight outdoor pools: a hydromassage pool of 617 m², a slow river, a swimming pool, a children's pool with a slide and an octopus, a pool for teenagers with slides, and a jacuzzi with a mountain view. The 2026 season has ended; the operator says guests will be seen again in summer 2027.
