Puning Hot Spring lies at the foot of Mount Pinatubo in Sitio Puning, Barangay Inararo, Porac, Pampanga, reached via a 4x4 jeep ride through dramatic lahar canyons carved by the volcano's 1991 eruption. Across roughly a dozen natural pools, geothermally heated water ranges from around 40°C to as hot as 70°C in the hottest pool and waterfall area, and the site also offers a volcanic sand spa. The area was developed in the years following the 1991 eruption, which displaced local Aeta communities; the name "Puning" derives from a word meaning "Mother Nature" in the Mag-antsi Aeta language, and some Aeta community members were involved in developing the site.
