Broken Skull Hot Springs, located within the Nááts'ihch'oh National Park Reserve in Canada's Northwest Territories near the Yukon border, are bicarbonate springs emerging in one of the most remote and pristine wilderness settings in North America, accessible only by float plane or multi-day river expedition. The springs are named after the nearby Broken Skull River, a legendary whitewater river in the South Nahanni wilderness, and they represent one of the most northerly thermal bathing experiences in Canada. The surrounding landscape of boreal wilderness, dramatic mountain terrain, and virtually zero human infrastructure ensures that Broken Skull Hot Springs remains an authentic wilderness thermal experience beyond the reach of casual tourism.
