The water

The water found in the Highland Baths is mineral water. It is drawn from beneath the earth, close to nearby geothermal fields, and brought to the surface in Ásgarður valley. The water is free from added chemicals like chlorine. The water's pH level is low and comparable to that of freshwater. It is considered beneficial for the skin, offering fewer instances of irritation or dryness compared to water with higher acidity. The water renews itself approximately every two hours.
