Ohanapecosh Hot Springs Trail Description
The hike to the Ohanapecosh Hot Springs is a short, easy journey suitable for young children. The trail takes you to hot springs that have been allowed to revert back to a more natural state after the development of a wellness resort in the area many years ago.
From the campground road, walk north on the highway. You can either loop from the visitor center or from Loop B of the campground.
Some hikers feel the hot springs themselves are underwhelming as an objective, so we recommend continuing a bit further down to Silver Falls for a 3.5mi hike.
