Great outdoor natural hot springs. It’s right by the river. No bathrooms and no trash cans open in winter. Can’t drive into grounds when it’s winter. But can park at road and walk in. No fee since grounds closed to camping. And camping only open during late spring to September. You do need to be able bodied to walk to springs. Wear good tread shoes to walk there and can get wet.

But can park at road and walk in. No fee since grounds closed to camping. And camping only open during late spring to September. You do need to be able bodied to walk to springs. Wear good tread shoes to walk there and can get wet. There are two trails. One at top that leads you to walk down short distance or the rugged trail that goes immediately down into springs. This place is Very popular and Lots of people so you won’t necessarily get into a spring water area to sit right away. You may have to look around and be courteous and respectful to others when walking through and being there. This is a relaxing and peaceful natural place. It’s a privilege to be able to enjoy nature. Don’t ruin the area. Please Don’t leave trash anywhere. Whatever you bring, take it back with you. There was trash left by the springs and full garbage bags left outside the road gate that an animal tore into. Don’t be a jerk.

One of my favorite natural hot springs in Idaho ♥️ a true gem with a ton of pools to choose from. Great views and the hot spring pools sit right along the cold river. The drive to get to the parking lot was very windy, but totally worth it! Not a far walk from parking lot to the springs

It was a beautiful drive out to Kirkham and the hot Springs were AMAZING 🤩. I went on a Wednesday and I had it basically all to myself. Highly recommend a soak. You can soak, have a picnic and explore. A perfect day trip.

Awesome hot springs and only a 5 minute walk in the winter. ProTip: Buy some cheap rechargeable lights and some colored gels to strap on them with rubber bands. Then put them shining on the waterfalls and rocks!
