Embark on the San Antonio Hot Springs Trail, an easy 0.8-mile (1.2 km) hike that leads you to natural, terraced pools. You will gain 176 feet (54 metres) in elevation over an estimated 22 minutes, passing through dense forests before reaching the crystal-clear geothermal waters. This short route offers a rewarding experience for most fitness levels, providing a peaceful escape into nature.
Accessing the trailhead often involves navigating Forest Road 376, which can be quite rough; a high-clearance vehicle is recommended, especially if there has been recent rain. Be aware that winter road closures can significantly extend your journey, potentially turning it into a challenging 10-mile round trip through snowy conditions. Always check road conditions before you head out to ensure a smooth visit.
Nestled in the remote setting of the Jemez Mountains, the San Antonio Hot Springs offer expansive mountain views and a tranquil atmosphere. These unique pools, set against steep canyon walls, make for a truly distinctive destination. The natural beauty and secluded feel provide a perfect opportunity to unwind and connect with the wilderness.
