Mwanzisgum Hot Springs is a natural geothermal spring site in the Godoma area of the Kenya highlands, where bicarbonate-rich thermal waters emerge in a remote mountain landscape and have been part of a long bathing tradition among local communities, in the heritage of indigenous East African mineral water culture. The springs are a relatively undeveloped natural site, offering unmediated access to thermal waters in their natural state within a landscape shaped by the hydrology and geology of the East African Rift's peripheral zones. Local communities in the surrounding area have traditionally enjoyed the spring waters for relaxation and well-being, maintaining a thermal heritage that predates formal health tourism in the region by many generations.
