This lake is great. 1.5 miles deep and very warm due to springing water from sulphorous depths. Lots of green algae types which are not harmful (so long as you don't swallow the water) and quite smelly. You'll drown if you stay in too long as the water qualities induce sleepiness and very relaxed muscles. I managed to stay in for about 30 mins and struggled to swim back to the banks - even with the help of wooden jetties. It's been used for medicinal purposes and fun (for millenia). Good place.
no es un lugar para jovenes! :((

I was there 2003 & 2005 swimming. But the water smells extremely like old eggs! XD
