Air Panas Semurup is a natural geothermal hot spring in the Semurup area of Kerinci Regency, Jambi province, Sumatra, Indonesia, located in the volcanic highlands surrounding Gunung Kerinci — the highest active volcano in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, rising to 3,805 metres. The spring's geothermal activity is driven by the volcanic energy of the Kerinci volcanic system, producing naturally heated mineral waters in one of Sumatra's most biodiverse and environmentally significant highland regions, part of the Kerinci Seblat National Park and its UNESCO Tropical Rainforest Heritage zone. Local communities and visitors to the Kerinci highlands use Air Panas Semurup for bathing and traditional therapeutic purposes, experiencing geothermal spring bathing in the extraordinary setting of a UNESCO World Heritage volcanic landscape.

Insider tip — Air Panas Semurup emerges near the volcanic Mount Kerinci, the highest volcano in Indonesia, in the highland regency of Kerinci in Jambi Province. The sulfurous water surfaces through pyroclastic deposits at a comfortable 40°C. The cool mountain air of the Kerinci Valley at 700 meters elevation makes the warm soak especially invigorating, and the surrounding tea plantations and cinnamon gardens perfume the air.
