About This Spring

Baker Hot Springs is a primitive rock and gravel bottomed pool, with a few sources entering the hot springs. Temperature depends how close you are to a source and the season of the year. Volcanic ash sometimes clogs the vents of the hot springs and you may need to dig down to clear them.

Discover this 0.6-mile out-and-back trail near Concrete, Washington. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of 13 min to complete. This trail is great for hiking and walking, and it’s unlikely you’ll encounter many other people while exploring. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome and may be off-leash in some areas.

The road leading to the trailhead can be rough. There are often deep ruts, so driving a sedan is not recommended. The hot springs are a short hike from the road and are primitive, the water is damed with rocks and some logs. Be sure to pack out everything you bring with you, do not bring glass anywhere near the pools.
