About RUSH Warm Springs
RUSH Warm Springs offers a serene retreat amid Idaho’s rugged landscape. This primitive warm spring features soothing waters at a steady 72°F, inviting you to relax in a natural setting away from crowds. Its unspoiled charm reflects the authentic experience found in many of the less-traveled hot springs in Idaho.
Getting There
Access to RUSH Warm Springs requires a bit of adventure, with a short hike over uneven terrain to reach the site. Parking is limited near the trailhead, so plan accordingly and be prepared for a moderate walk through natural surroundings to arrive at the pools.
What to Expect
Prepare for a quiet, rustic atmosphere where the clear, comfortably warm waters offer gentle relief from Idaho’s outdoor elements. Facilities are minimal, with no built structures or amenities, making the experience ideal if you appreciate raw, natural swimming holes. Expect peace and solitude, especially on weekdays.
Tips for Visitors
Visit during early mornings or weekdays to avoid the occasional visitors, as the spring’s isolation can attract small groups on weekends. Bring sturdy footwear for the hike, water, and insect repellent. No fees or permits are required, but practice Leave No Trace principles to keep this wild spot pristine.
