Editor's Note As Of June 2023: According to NPS.gov, the trail system is currently closed and the ladder at the hot springs was damaged by a flood. There is no access at this time. Check with the National Park Service for updates on reopening. This trail is closed from May until September annually as well.

Found at the end of a strenuous trail through a slot canyon, the hike to these hidden hot springs near Kingman AZ is well worth the effort. These hot springs reach 111 degrees at their source but the temperatures do cool as they disperse through the rest of the pools.

It's amazing what you can find in Arizona state parks. A prime example is this viewing-only hot spring. Located in the Grand Canyon, the Pumpkin Spring pool looks like a picturesque relaxation spot, but don't be fooled. This hot spring is actually extremely toxic with an incredibly high composition of lead, arsenic, copper, and zinc inside. At least it looks pretty!

  1. Are there any good swimming holes in Arizona?

When the weather is hot, as it often is in Arizona, looking for a place to cool off is essential. Backyard pools are nice and all but finding a swimming hole surrounded by natural beauty just seems a little nicer.

  • Fossil Creek near Pine and Strawberry features a gorgeous turquoise pool that is accessible along the Bob Bear Trail. Parking must be reserved before you go and you must prepare for a full day with a fairly long, strenuous hike involved, but if you are able to do the hike, the effort is well worth it.
  • Wet Beaver Creek is more accessible to all and is located close to the Out of Africa Animal Park, so you can plan a fun family day in the area!
