The most challenging and rewarding hot spring in WA!

1 min read 151 words 73 views

Goldmyer Hot Springs is a gem of

the wilderness nestled in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains, roughly 25 miles east of North Bend, WA.

Venturing on the 4.5 mile hike from the trailhead to the 20 acre wilderness preserve is a backcountry experience where guests must be self-supported and able to pack in (and out) all necessary supplies.

Amenities provided are very limited. They include an open-air cabana at the hot spring pools, campsites with food hanging lines and containers, three maintained outhouses, two picnic tables, and a bike rack. No cellular or internet connection available.

Visitors gain access to tranquil terrain, hiking trails through old growth forest, waterfalls, history of the Middle Fork Valley, and a crystal clear geothermal hot spring.

Goldmyer is owned and volunteer-managed by Northwest Wilderness Programs, a nonprofit organization established in 1976 to protect this natural treasure for the use of generations to come.
