Hot Springs Near Las Vegas, Nevada

Hot springs near Las Vegas cluster in two distinct areas. The closest group sits in the Black Canyon of the Colorado River within Lake Mead National Recreation Area, about 30 miles south of the Strip near Hoover Dam. Gold Strike Hot Springs on the Nevada side requires a strenuous 2.5-mile canyon descent with rope sections to reach pools at 100 to 109 degrees. Arizona Hot Springs on the Arizona side is a 5-mile hike to slot canyon pools reaching 120 degrees. Both trails close from May through September due to extreme desert heat. The second cluster sits roughly 80 miles west near the California border at Tecopa, on the eastern edge of Death Valley. Delight's Hot Springs Resort and Tecopa Palms offer developed mineral pools at 98 to 104 degrees with day passes available, while Shoshone Hot Springs a few miles south maintains a warm pool in the small desert town of Shoshone on CA-127.
