About This Spring

Description

The water pours out of metal pipes from a hillside at around 105 degrees. There are several rock lined pools going down the hillside, the largest pool being big enough for 10 people to soak. Cows are grazing all around, the water is pristine, the tubs have a sandy bottom which you can see clearly, amazing views of the valley, and mtns. Just don’t go on a weekend.

Nearest Address

At the north end of forest road 376 near Jemez Springs, NM.

Directions from Nearest Address

From Jemez Springs follow hwy 4 north to state road 126, head west on 126 for 3 miles, then turn north up forest road 376. For this part you’ll need a high clearance vehicle, we saw several compact cars make it, but I wouldn’t recommend it. The spring is at the north end of 376. a 5 1/2 mile hike if you choose not to take the car. At the end of 376 you’ll cross a creek on your right, and scramble up a steep hill to the springs.
