Euganean Spa's thermal water

The Abano and Montegrotto baths, today as 2000 years ago, are immersed in the regenerating green of the Euganean Hills.
There is no polluting industry, but only natural energy.
The thermal waters gush at 87°C and travel a 25-year journey in the bowels of the earth. During the journey, the water becomes rich in all those minerals that make it unique and reaches the right temperature to warm up the luxurious rooms of the 108 hotels of the basin.
The same water, bromo-iodine salt hyper thermal, in contact with a very soft clay and after a maturation period of about 60 days, originates the mud.

Mud therapy

Euganean Spa's mud, used for centuries as a compress to cure articular pathologies (Roman soldiers used to come along and heal themselves after battles!), is very important in detoxifying the organism and reinforcing its natural defences and against everyday stress.
It is also very effective in helping weight loss, in toning and revitalising the skin of your body and face.

Sardara baths

The presence of a 'nuraghe' and of a 'nuragic' well in the baths park bears witness to the existence of settlements around the Sardara springs in the nuragic period, some 1600 years before Christ.
Only later, around the III B.C., the Romans settled in the area and built the baths called 'Neapolitaneae'.
These springs are classified as 'mineral bicarbonate-alkaline hyper thermal' and come out at a temperature between 50° and 68°.
The mud is natural and appears clayish and ash black in colour and it can cure: rheumatism, arthrosis and after-effects of traumas and skin diseases (psoriasis).
The inhaling cure is helpful in cases of: rhinitis, sinusitis, laryngitis, tracheitis and chronic bronchitis.

Fordongianus Spa

The new Centro Termale Sardegna (Sardegna Spa Centre) is located in the valley of the river Tirso. The centre is near a nineteenth-century bridge, which has been built on the still visible Roman foundations, opposite the ancient city of Fordongianus.
It seems that the first settlements of Fordongianus date back to Phoenician times. Ptolemy mentioned the city Acquae Hypsitanae, referring exactly to the thermal springs, as a primary settlement.
Fordongianus, thanks to the Centro Termale Sardegna, boasts one of the most modern and best equipped spa complexes in Italy.
