Ash Springs Hot Springs
Ash Springs Hot Springs

Ash Springs Hot Springs is an oasis in the broad open expanse of the Pahragant Valley. The springs crystal clear waters have a temperature in the mid-90s, about perfect for a soak!

The springs have a long history of being enjoyed by visitors. Not far south of the springs is the Ash Springs Rock Art site, showing Native American peoples used the area and, undoubtedly, the hot springs.

Though the springs are on BLM land, in 2013, the BLM closed the springs, citing public safety and environmental damage. Currently, the springs are not signed as closed, but the old parking area at the springs has been closed requiring a short walk. There are parking spots a short distance away.

Note: Because of the history of the springs, please visit respectfully. Pick up all trash, stay on trails, and don’t otherwise cause damage to this special area. There is a BLM Vault toilet at the springs, though it was locked on our visit.
WARNING: In 2023 a 2-year-old contracted Naegleria fowleri infection, also known as a brain-eating amoeba, and died. Be aware of the possibility of the springs containing this serious amoeba. The CDC has a great page about the amoeba, route of infection, etc. on their website https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/naegleria/general.html
