Lava Hot Springs Pool
Lava Hot Spring Foundation

Lava Hot Springs Early pioneers soon learned what Idaho Indians already knew--the mineral warm waters of Lava Hot Springs seem to have natural healing powers. The 110-degree water has stayed the same, but the spa now features pools ranging from whirlpool to Olympic-size. They are open to the public year-round. Fishing and golf are available nearby.
