Juntura Hot Springs is a free public natural hot spring on the Malheur River near the tiny desert community of Juntura in eastern Oregon, where oligomineral geothermal waters seep through the Columbia Plateau basalt in the remote high desert of Malheur County. The spring feeds a small primitive soaking pool on the riverbank, offering an intimate and completely undeveloped thermal bathing experience in Oregon's vast sagebrush steppe landscape. The area's extraordinary dark skies, dramatic canyon scenery, and absolute solitude make Juntura one of the most remote and authentic natural hot spring experiences available in the Pacific Northwest.
