The hot springs (Spanish: termas, Quechua: yacu rupaj) of the area have a temperature of over 30 °C (86 °F), and have made the town a popular spa resort for Argentines, who enjoy the waters recommended against high blood pressure and rheumatism. Two public pools, La Olla and the Pileta Municipal, are near the town centre, along with many well-regarded hotels and restaurants.

New investments done in the last years were the new Las Termas Airport and Autodromo Termas de Rio Hondo, totally rebuilt to host MotoGP World Championship racing starting from April 2014.

The town was on the route of the 2015 and 2016 Dakar Rally.
