Mount Baker Hot Springs are located in a very picturesque natural site in the Mount Baker National Forest near Newhalem in Washington. The mineralized hot waters rise from the depths of volcanically active Mount Baker to settle in a natural pool that can be reached on foot along a short trail. When the waters have been left undisturbed for some time you can often see vapor rising above the pool. The heat of the hot spring varies seasonally and in winter the waters can be quite cool as a result of run-off rain and snow. There are no facilities on site and you will need to bring drinking water and snacks.
