Hot springs were valued back in ancient times. The ancient Greeks deified them. And the Romans even built their settlements near the place where a hot key beat from under the ground. After all, life without terms, in their opinion, was unbearable. And now, soaking up in hot water is considered the height of bliss. Therefore, Karlovy Vary in the Czech Republic, Bormio and Albano Terme in Italy, pools in Hungary and Iceland are popular among tourists.
In addition to relaxing and strengthening the body, such hot springs treat various diseases. After all, the level of mineralization of water in them is quite high.
Siberians do not need to go to Western Europe to pamper themselves by bathing in such hot pools. After all, they have their own thermal springs. Avan (Tyumen) is one of them, and we will devote our article to him. It should be said that this is not the only hot key near the city. But it is the most comfortable for swimming and recovery, since the recreation center “Avan” operates on the basis of the well.
How to get there
Sosnovy Bor, Wild, Yar are the hot keys that Tyumen is rightly proud of. Source Avan is not the closest, but not the most distant from the city. It is separated from Tyumen 20 km. Therefore, the Avan recreation center is loved by citizens at any time of the year, but especially in winter, when severe Siberian frosts crack. After all, the temperature contrast between cold air, snowdrifts and hot water is a kind of exotic that you will not find in Italy or Hungary.
The thermal spring Avan and the recreation center of the same name are located in the village of Kamenka at 4 Mira Street, Building 2. If you are traveling by car, you should get out of Tyumen along the Irbitsky tract. Regular buses go to the village of Kamenka. You can take a minibus to the ring at Roshchino Airport. There, stand on the road to Kamenka and Irbit and wait for the minibus following in this direction. Before reaching the village, on the highway you will see a sign pointing to the recreation center "Avan".
