Description The pool is on the side of Hot Springs creek approx 100 metres upstream of its confluence with the Wanganui River on the true left bank about 1 hours walk up the river from the roadend which is approx 5 km north of Harihari. [Joe Hansen, Masterton]
Drive to roadend on north side of Wanganui river bridge and follow road up past rock quarry and onto tramping track. The river needs to be low enough at this point to cross onto the lower end of Hot Springs flats where it is an easy walk up the flats to the hot spring.The only other way to access is via the southern or true left bank of the river which involves a 2 hour trip of mainly boulder hopping. [Joe Hansen, Masterton]

- Very nice pool (once slime has been removed) would comfortably hold 12+ people. Camping is a bit rough beside pools, if you head slightly up the Wanganui river you will find a very pleasant grassy terrace (5-10mins from pools). This makes an excellent weekend trip from CHCH with only 3 hours walking each day.
