Termas de Vidago

The Termas de Vidago, at the heart of the Belle Epoque Vidago Palace, is one of Portugal's historic thermal destinations. The palace was commissioned by King Carlos I and opened in 1910 as a therapeutic luxury resort, set within the wooded Vidago Thermal Park in Tras-os-Montes.

Mineral water & source

The spa draws on Vidago's celebrated natural mineral waters, collected directly from deep wells in the granite rock. The water is rich in minerals with alkalizing and diuretic properties, and is traditionally associated with digestive, musculoskeletal and metabolic benefits.
