Hannah Hot Spring

Perhaps the most isolated hot spring in the state of Arizona, Hannah is a true wilderness experience, requiring a hike of more than 7 miles one way. Once you finally get to Hannah Hot Spring, a small, unimpressive basin meets you. The basin is constructed of concrete and is basically a cattle watering trough. The water from the spring is hot, about 133 degrees F at the source, but cools as it reaches the basin. The countryside more than makes up for the unspectacular watering trough. You will enjoy this trip to Hannah if you appreciate the wilderness and being far from civilization. It is a long trip, and all preparations should be made. I do not recommend attempting this trip in one day. The best way to visit is to backpack in. The hot spring is in a primitive setting. There are no roads for 7 miles from the hot spring and the area is largely untouched by humans.
