Ein Sprung in die heißen Thermalquellen ist eine herrliche Erfahrung nicht nur für müde Wanderer. Die natürlich warmen Pools liegen an wunderschönen Flüssen und schneebedeckten Tannenwäldern. Wasserdampf steigt aus den Quellen empor - es ist das ultimative Spa von Mutter Natur. Aridaia bietet aber noch viel mehr in Ihrem Urlaub: Schluchtenwandern, Klettern und Bergsteigen. Nichts ist unmöglich in den Pózar-Thermalbädern, hauptsache Sie reisen nach Makedonien.
