Baile Tusnad lies at the eastern foot of the Piatra Soimilor (848 m or 853 m) and on the western slopes of the Ciomatu-mountain (1301 m). At the way out of the pass we can admire the Bicsad-valley-basin.

Ciomatul is the youngest volcanic mountain in the Carpathians. The twin-craters prove that there was still an active volcanic activity in the Pleistocene period. Today the post-volcanic phenomena can be observed. In the crater of the Ciomatul is situated the only volcanic lake of Middle-Europe that has remained in a good state, Lake Saint Ann, while in the twin-crater the Mohos-peat-bog can be seen.

The main water-course of the spa is the Olt-river into which several streams flow. The artificial Lake Ciucas was created from the water of the Olt and a small holiday place was also created around it which hosts a skate-rink in the winter.

The pass of the Olt at Baile Tusnad (or Tusnad-pass, 606 m). It was formed on the western side of the Ciomatul-Puciosul volcanic mountains.
