What it is

Recognition in the thermal-resources register
Entries of the Ministry of Tourism's register of recognised thermal natural resources (law 3498/2006), as published on data.gov.gr in March 2026 under CC BY 4.0. The register has no coordinates: the entries were matched to this place by name and regional unit and may concern a borehole or a spring a little further away.

Recognition is the legal status of the natural resource. It is no judgement of the water's quality or of any use of it, and the page states no health properties.

What this page does not say
This site makes no health claims and does not describe or recommend any use of the water for treatment. The medical use of a thermal resource is regulated by law; the word «ιαματικός» in the name of the list is the legal term, not a judgement of this page. Whether and how a spring or a bath may be used is for its operator and the competent authorities.
How the facts were put together
The springs and baths are OpenStreetMap points (ODbL, Geofabrik snapshot 24 Sep 2026, processed 10 Oct 2026): points tagged natural=hot_spring, public baths (amenity=public_bath) with bath:type hot_spring or thermal or with a name that says thermal or hot, and mud baths. Turkish baths (hammam), hotels and clinics are not counted. Points within 1,600 m of each other count as one place, and the page takes the point nearest the middle of them.
The page name is one of the names OpenStreetMap or Wikidata gives the place, in Greek and in English as stated in the "What it is" section; a place with no such name in both languages has no page. Water temperature, fee, operator and website appear only where OpenStreetMap writes them; we never open an operator's website and show no opening hours.
Wikidata has no item for a hot spring or baths at this place, so the page takes no labels or links from it.
The register of recognised thermal natural resources (Ministry of Tourism, file ifp_anagnorismena_march_2026.xlsx, 86 entries, CC BY 4.0) was matched to the place by name and regional unit because it has no coordinates. Entries with no spring mapped on the map have no page.
The towns, beaches, sights, peaks, lakes and trails of the "Places nearby" section are pages of this site; distances are in a straight line, not road kilometres, and a place is left out when sea lies between. A lake appears when its shore is within 5,000 m and a trail when its line passes within 1,500 m.
