This is a story of thermal and mineral waters, which heal, invigorate and nourish. Slovenia has a truly magical underground world. Springs of crystal-clear mineral water, bursting from the depth of 1000 meters, enrich many different parts of the country. Over thousands of years and under the influence of temperature and earth pressures, waters have dissolved rocks and soaked themselves with the best combination of minerals.
