Tatopani Hot Springs II is a natural geothermal hot spring in Nepal, one of several sites sharing the name Tatopani — meaning 'hot water' in Nepali — scattered across the country's extraordinary geothermal landscape, produced by the tectonic forces of the ongoing Himalayan mountain-building process. The spring provides naturally heated mineral waters in a Himalayan setting typically accessible to trekkers on one of Nepal's mountain circuits, where the warm pools serve as a deeply welcome restorative stop for hikers descending from high-altitude trails to soak their weary muscles in naturally heated mineral water. Nepal's Tatopani springs have been celebrated in trekking culture for generations as some of the finest and most authentically situated natural hot springs in all of Asia, offering an unparalleled combination of geothermal wellness and Himalayan landscape.

Insider tip — Tatopani Hot Springs II sits along the Kali Gandaki gorge in Nepal's Mustang District, one of the deepest river valleys on Earth. The sulfurous water emerges at 45°C from geothermal vents related to the Himalayan tectonic collision zone. This is a celebrated rest stop on the Annapurna Circuit trek; aching trekkers lower sore muscles into the poolside baths with the canyon walls rising thousands of meters above on either side.
