- Lake and river access are easy, free, and beautiful. Walking and biking are inexpensive options to get to the falls, craters, water activities, spas, and shopping. The sauna and hot springs were a superb way to wind down from all the activities.

And every day one returns to the famous hot pools for a well-deserved soak!
