Admission to the Baños Morales in 2024 is CLP 5,000 for most adults and CLP 2,500 for seniors. Children under 10 visit free. Day tours to the Monumento Natural El Morado, where the Baños Morales are located, start at US$150 per person and include round-trip transportation from Santiago.

The main activity at the Baños Morales is soaking in warm, mineral-rich waters. However, many travelers devote their time at the Monumento Natural El Morado, where the springs are located, to outdoor pursuits, foregoing a soak altogether in favor of hiking in the surrounding area.

The most important things to bring to Baños Morales are a swimsuit and a towel. A water bottle for staying hydrated and some sort of sun protection, such as sunscreen or a wide-brimmed hat, are also must-packs. If you plan to go hiking, bring sturdy shoes as well.

If you're coming from Santiago, you must join a tour, rent a car, and drive yourself. If you plan to drive, you’ll want to head toward San José de Maipo and then take the Camino al Volcán (Route G-25) to San Gabriel, about a 14-mile (22-kilometer) drive from the springs.

You can visit the thermal pools throughout the year, but many people opt to come during the warmer months (October–March or April) when the weather is pleasant and better suited to hiking. A soak in the warm waters can be particularly cozy on a cold winter’s day.
