But few of them know that the Tyumen springs are part of an underground thermal sea, packed under the Tyumen region many millions of years ago. How unusual it is to plunge into hot water in twenty, or even thirty degrees below zero (+38-+40 ) water, feel its warming touch, as frost covers your hair, enjoy the fresh forest air and admire the snow-white snowflakes falling on your head.
Attention: To visit the spring, you must have a towel, slates, and a bathing suit with you. A bathrobe is optional.
