About Spring On Redland Mountain
Spring On Redland Mountain offers a quiet, warm oasis tucked into the rugged Arkansas wilderness. This primitive warm spring flows at a comforting 77°F, inviting you to immerse yourself in naturally heated waters surrounded by dense forest and rocky terrain. Its unspoiled character provides a genuine connection to nature away from developed sites.
Getting There
Reaching Spring On Redland Mountain requires a moderate hike through uneven trails typical of Arkansas’s backcountry. Parking is available at a nearby trailhead, but expect to carry your gear over rough ground to access the spring. The journey itself sets the tone for an authentic experience in one of the state's natural swimming holes.
What to Expect
The spring’s warm, clear water pools gently among stones, offering a serene place to soak without the buzz of crowds. Facilities are minimal—there are no built amenities or signage—so the atmosphere remains naturally wild and peaceful. Wildlife sounds and rustling leaves enhance the feeling of escape into Arkansas’s natural landscape.
Tips for Visitors
Visit during weekdays or shoulder seasons to avoid any weekend visitors, as the spring’s limited access keeps numbers low but not nonexistent. Bring sturdy footwear for rocky trails and pack out all trash to protect the fragile environment. There are no entrance fees, but respect for this primitive setting helps preserve one of Arkansas’s authentic warm springs.
