The Thermal Baths of Bormio

Bormio has two separate bath operators with different prices and rules. This page compares Bormio Terme and the QC baths, so you pick the right one before you queue or book.

Two operators, two sets of rules

The thermal baths of Bormio are not one ticket. Bormio Terme is one operator, and the QC baths (Bagni Vecchi and Bagni Nuovi) are another. Bormio Terme sells entry without a reservation, up to its capacity limit. QC works with date-based prices and reservations. Do not mix up the two when you read a price or a rule.

Prices below are the published figures for 2026 and 2026/27. They are starting points, and the final price depends on the date and the product.

€35Bormio Terme adult day ticket, no reservation
From €58QC day visit of 5 hours, date and availability dependent

The current page lists 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., closed on Tuesday. Wednesdays are listed until 10 p.m. from 7 October, and the pools and services close 30 minutes earlier. Tuesday 8 December is listed as an exception. The page gives no year for these two notes, so check before you go.

QC Bagni Vecchi and Bagni Nuovi

Two QC locations with the same day-visitor price list.

QC lists the same starting prices for both locations. They depend on the date and on availability, so they are not fixed prices for the whole year.

VisitStarting price
5 hoursFrom €58
No time limitFrom €72
From 5 p.m.From €54
From 7:30 p.m.From €44

Bathrobe, towel, slippers and Aperiterme are included. Day visitors under 14 and pregnant women are not admitted. QC also publishes different age rules for hotel guests, with spa access from 5 years with an adult, but not at Bagni Vecchi among others. That may be a difference between hotel guests and day visitors, so ask QC before you bring children.
