About WEATHERBY Hot Springs

WEATHERBY Hot Springs offers a rugged, untamed experience deep in Idaho’s wilderness. Known for its naturally warm waters reaching up to 113°F, this primitive spring invites you to soak amid dense woods and flowing creeks, blending heat and chill in a strikingly raw environment.

Getting There

Reaching WEATHERBY requires a challenging hike through thick forest trails and creek crossings, lasting over an hour. Parking is limited and located some distance from the spring, so prepare for a strenuous approach through uneven terrain.

What to Expect

You’ll find naturally heated pools bubbling with hot water alongside chilly creek spots, creating a dramatic temperature contrast. The atmosphere is wild and peaceful, usually free from crowds, making it easy to connect with nature in solitude. Facilities are minimal—nature is the only backdrop.

Tips for Visitors

Plan your visit with sturdy hiking boots and enough water for the trek. The spring is accessible year-round, but the trail can be slippery, especially after rain or snow. Bring supplies as no fees or services exist here, and practice Leave No Trace principles to preserve the pristine surroundings.
