Indian Hot Springs

Nestled between river canyons, Indian Hot Springs is a hidden desert oasis with stunning views in every direction. Leaving the stark Inside Desert, the excitement peaks as you see the Bruneau River’s flowing waters, topped with steam from the hot springs, plunging 2,300 feet into Bruneau Canyon. This ancient route, once traversed by the indigenous Paiute-Shoshone for trade and relaxation, later attracted prospectors in search of the prized Bruneau Jasper, whose remnants still dot the landscape. This trail is a must-explore when visiting the Bruneau-Jarbidge area.
