Tucked away in the Jemez Mountains, the San Antonio Hot Springs can only be reached by driving down a bumpy dirt road and climbing up a short but steep hill. The natural, rock-lined pools here are spaced out down a hillside and filled with water that comes out of a metal pipe at the top of the hill; the water is approximately 105 °F when it comes out of the pipe, and it gradually cools as it progresses down the hill. All of the pools have soft, sandy bottoms, and the largest can comfortably hold up to 10 people.
