1. Liard River Hot Springs, near Fort Nelson, BC is the second largest in Canada, burbling at between 42- to 52-degrees. It’s reached by a boardwalk through lush spruce forests and moose-ponds.
2. For the odour-sensitive, Takhini Hot Springs – 30 kilometers from Whitehorse – contain very little smelly sulphur. A concrete pool circulates the 45-degree water and gives bathers a mountain-view.
3. Beside the Nahanni River, Kraus Hot Springs is named for a couple who homesteaded here for 30 years. Their cabin still stands, surrounded by exotic plants nurtured by the 32-degree waters.
4. Also in Nahanni, Rabbitkettle Hot Springs hovers at a tepid 20-degrees. The real attraction are the tufa mounds – one of them 30 metres high – created by minerals from the spring water.
5. Since surveyors spotted it in 1904, the Chena Hot Springs near Fairbanks, Alaska have drawn thousands of bathers. The waters have also been developed into a commercial source of geothermal power.
