One balneological resource of extraordinary value, to which the town of Sandanski owes its existence, are the mineral waters. Within the whole region their total discharge is estimated at 65 1/s while for the town of Sandanski only it is about 25 1/s. Their temperature varies from 33°C to 88°C and the mineral content in them is poor - 0.78-1.02 g/1. That is why diseases can be treated both by drinking the water and by bathing.
