About This Tour

Leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind and enjoy a day dedicated entirely to relaxation and well-being. This trip takes you to the heart of Vâlcea County, to the Ocnița Spa, a tourist resort renowned for its extraordinary therapeutic properties. To ensure that everything runs smoothly, we’ve distilled the essence of this destination, transforming it into an experience you can enjoy to the fullest, free from logistical worries.

Unlike other similar locations, the pools at Ocnița offer water with an extremely high concentration of mineral salts, particularly sodium chloride. This makes the experience not only relaxing but also a true natural treatment for the body. You’ll have free time to organize exactly as you wish: swimming, sunbathing, or simply relaxing in the sun, capturing the thrill of a perfect vacation day.

The resort is equipped with all the amenities needed for a comfortable day trip, including a restaurant where you can enjoy delicious meals, rest areas, and modern restrooms. Pack your swimsuit and a positive attitude, and get ready for a rejuvenating getaway from which you’ll return feeling completely refreshed.
