Terme Lucane
The Municipality of Episcopia provides a free shuttle to the Terme Lucane located in the neighboring municipality of Latronico.
Located in the heart of the Pollino – Sirino – Maratea Thermal Ecological District, an uncontaminated corner of green Basilicata, which finds its maximum expression in the Pollino National Park, the Lucanian Baths represent one of the exciting moments of the local reality further confirmed by the sea of Maratea, from the snows of Monte Sirino (ski resort) and Lake Senise.
The therapeutic virtues of these waters were most likely known since prehistoric times.
Archaeological research conducted in the early 1900s brought to light votive stipi in the Calda caves, immediately near the springs, considered by scholars to be sacred deposits connected with the “cult of healthy waters”.
The Terme Lucane are immersed in a splendid green park, available to all, where it is possible to carve out a wellness break in contact with nature.

- Arthrorheumatic diseases: Diffuse arthrosis, osteoarthrosis, lumbago of rheumatic origin, extra-articular rheumatism, cervicoarthrosis, chronic scapulohumeral periatritis.
