About the hot springs

What makes these hot spring so unique are the cascading pools of water through the red hill. 

The different layers of pools with water falls between each one.

The very top spring is blocked off by a fence because the water is scalding hot. As the water travels down to the different pools each pool is a different temperature. The pools get progressively cooler the farther down they go. 

Please do not re route the water to form different pools. The community has to come and re route it back whenever people do that.

The community takes great pride in these hot springs. They have done a lot to make the area a nice family- friendly atmosphere. Clothing is required at this hot spring! 

Amenities

The amenities are minimal. There is a port a potty on site along with trash cans.
