Warm Springs is a warm spring catalogued in Arizona by the U.S. Geological Survey's Geographic Names Information System — about 106 miles from Flagstaff, AZ, inside Grand Canyon National Park.

Safety & access

Read before visiting

Verify access before driving in. The U.S. Geological Survey catalogs the geographic feature, not its access status. Hot springs in our database span the full range from developed public soaking pools to private resorts to wild thermal water on federal/state land. Some require entry fees; some are on private property; some are in National Park Service units where soaking is prohibited.

This feature is inside Grand Canyon National Park and is federally protected. Stay on designated boardwalks and trails — leaving them damages fragile thermal-features and is illegal. Soaking is prohibited in most NPS thermal areas.

Before you go: check current conditions and access rules with the relevant land manager — National Park Service unit, U.S. Forest Service ranger district, Bureau of Land Management field office, state-park department, or the property owner if it's private. Wild thermal water can be unsafe to enter without a thermometer; surface temperatures can vary dramatically from the deeper pool. When in doubt, don't soak.

Public data

Location data for Warm Springs comes from the U.S. Geological Survey's Geographic Names Information System (public domain), feature class "Spring". We filter the GNIS Spring catalog to thermal features by name pattern (hot spring, warm spring, geyser, boiling spring, thermal). The GNIS records the geographic feature itself; access rules, ownership, and current conditions come from the relevant land manager. To suggest corrections, see our methodology page or contact us.
