Hot Springs Water

Hunt Hot Springs – Big Bend, California

November 10, 2022 By //  by Patricia K

Hunt Hot Springs is a beautiful place to unwind in mineral-rich water while taking in the area’s tranquil atmosphere. Located in the Cascade Mountains of Big Bend, California, not far from Mount Shasta, are four natural hot springs soaking spots by the Kosh stream.

Natural Hot Springs

The water at Hunt Hot Springs is extraordinarily hot, coming from a headwater of about 170 ℉. Two contiguous tubs made of rock and concrete are fed by the source’s hot water, which ultimately drains into the stream.

Hunt Hot Springs provide not one but four unique locations to relax in hot water. The source sends water to two connected tubs with concrete and rock walls. The temperature stays between 110°F and 120°F, but it can go as high as 140°F. Hot tub water temperatures may change depending on the outside air temperature.

The third and smallest tub is a natural rock-walled pool near the river with a temperature of roughly 103°F and room for two. The last place to soak is a bigger tub with rock walls that sits next to the river and stays at about 100°F.

Adjusting the temperature of this collection is as simple as letting stream water pour in. Cool down with a swim in the Kosh brook when you’re done getting toasty in the hot springs.

Visiting the Springs

Take caution if you decide to visit this area. The Big Bend hot springs have been linked to automobile break-ins and usage by the homeless population. More than that, at least one reported incidence of a missing person at these springs has been reported.

Another local option nearby is Kosk Hot Springs. It’s also primitive and free to use.

Camping

Camping at the site is not permitted, but many campgrounds around the Big Bend area exist. One of the region’s most popular places to stay for a night or two is McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park, which is about an hour away from the springs. Camp Stony Meadows is another site that is 1.5 miles directly north of the thermal pools.

Address: 1.5 miles south of: 26500 Kosk Crk Rd, Big Bend, California 96011
