About Antelope Hot Springs
Also known as Hart Mountain Hot Springs, this remote primitive spring sits within the Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge in Oregon's high desert, where pronghorn antelope roam freely across vast sagebrush plateaus. A concrete-block bathhouse shelters a single soaking tub fed by scalding 135°F water that must be cooled before entry. The sheer isolation and wildlife viewing make this a bucket-list soak for hot spring enthusiasts.
