Hammam Guergour
حمام قرقور
A traditional spa town in the Boussellam River valley, offering hot mineral-water treatments; one of Algeria's best-known hot spring destinations.
Hammam Guergour lies in the Boussellam River valley about 45 km northwest of Sétif. The spring water is around 45°C and rich in minerals, and it has been used since Roman times. Today it has public bathhouses and spa hotels, and it draws many local families on weekends. The surrounding gorges and mountain scenery are attractive. Facilities are fairly traditional, with bathing separated by gender either by time slot or by area, so staying at a spa hotel for a cleaner private bathroom is recommended. It can be reached by hired car and suits a half-day trip.
