3 Oregon Hot springs you cant miss

Hot Springs #1

Umpqua Hot springs

Located on the North Umpqua River in Southern Oregon. You will embark on a short 0.8 mile out and back hike where you will find a handful of hot pools that sit above a roaring river. To visit these relaxing soaking pools a $5 day pass is required. Visit soakoregon.com for everything you need to know about visiting these hot springs.

Hot Springs #2

Cougar Hot Springs AKA Terwilliger Hot Springs

A short .25 mile hike you will encounter 6 beautiful crystal clear soaking pools. I could not recommend these falls enough! A few notes – There is a $7 soaking fee per person so do not forget the cash! No Alcohol is permitted and these springs are closed on Thursday’s from 8AM to 12PM for cleaning.

Hot Springs #3

Bigelow Hot Springs

The 3rd and final not to miss Oregon hot springs is Bigelow hot springs which located right along the McKenzie river. The reason I find this hot spring worthy of this list is how secluded and private it is. It takes a bit of going off the beaten trail as when we arrived there is no signage or crowds for that matter. If you are looking for a peaceful place to relax this is the one!
