5
Why are there so few hot springs near Roanoke?
The Appalachian thermal belt that produces mineral springs runs along a narrow band of faulting in the Allegheny Mountains between Virginia and West Virginia. Roanoke sits just east of this belt on the Blue Ridge side, placing it close to the Bath County cluster but far from any other geothermal system in the eastern United States.

East across the Blue Ridge, hot springs near Charlottesville overlap with the same Bath County cluster from the Shenandoah Valley side about 115 miles from Roanoke, adding Berkeley Springs and the northern WV panhandle.
