This single-pool hot spring is located in the remote Gorno-Badakhshan region of Tajikistan. Its iron-rich waters, at 38°C, emerge in the open and are enjoyed in an outdoor pool or through wild bathing.
Insider tip — This single-pool hot spring in Tajikistan's Gorno-Badakhshan region is typical of the Pamir thermal tradition — a natural pool in a remote mountain landscape at extreme altitude, used by Pamiri communities and adventurous trekkers exploring the Wakhan Corridor. Iron-rich water emerges in one of the world's most geologically active mountain zones, where the India-Eurasia plate collision continues to produce seismic events, uplift, and geothermal heating that maintains these extraordinary remote springs.
