Bog Hot Springs is a remote natural hot spring in the northern Nevada desert, where siliceous thermal water flows into a large earthen soaking pond in the empty landscape of Humboldt County near the Oregon border. The site, on Bureau of Land Management land with free public access, is beloved by Nevada hot springs aficionados for its impressive size, excellent soaking temperature, and profound desert solitude under vast Nevada skies. The surrounding high desert landscape of sage-covered flats, antelope, and volcanic geology represents the quintessential Great Basin wilderness experience.
Insider tip — At Bog hot springs, the 35°C water helps enhance the skin and promote healing in a natural American setting.
