SPA Excursion to Lumshory: Bathing in Cauldrons amid the Carpathians

A SPA excursion to the highland village of Lumshory is the ideal choice for anyone tired of city noise, constant bustle and information overload. Here, amid the Carpathian mountains, peace, tranquillity and a complete reset await you.

The silence and grandeur of the primeval beech forests, the soothing sound of the mountain stream, the picturesque waterfalls and the healing hydrogen-sulphide cauldrons of Lumshory give you unforgettable sensations and true restoration of body and soul.

SPA Excursion to Lumshory: why choose it

Lumshory is one of the most famous SPA spots in Zakarpattia, where the ancient traditions of healing in nature have been preserved.

Bathing in the cauldrons helps to:

• relieve stress and nervous tension;
• improve blood circulation and the condition of the joints;
• strengthen the immune system;
• restore your energy after a busy routine;
• feel in harmony with the nature of the Carpathians.

Alternating between the hot mineral water and the cold mountain river creates a powerful health-giving effect.

How the SPA treatment in the cauldrons works

A huge cast-iron cauldron with a capacity of around 2000 litres sits in a roofless wooden hut. It is filled with mineral spring water and heated with firewood over an open flame.

• the water temperature - up to +43°C;
• 5-6 people bathe at the same time;
• on the bottom - river stones;
• after warming up - an instant plunge into the cold mountain stream.

This alternation is repeated several times - the sensations are incredible, and the effect stays with you for a long time.

Walks and the waterfalls of Lumshory

Before the SPA treatments you can enjoy a walk along the Turychka mountain stream to the small but extraordinarily picturesque waterfalls «Davir» and «Solovei» (Nightingale). This place fills you with calm and lets you feel the living energy of the Carpathians.

A gastronomic delight of Zakarpattia

A vivid addition to the excursion is a tasting lunch at the ethno-restaurant Pidkova (Horseshoe):

• 16 traditional Zakarpattian dishes;
• homemade uzvar (dried-fruit compote);
• local plum brandy.

The authentic cuisine heightens the experience and adds energy after the SPA.

The mystical Nevytske Castle
