Access: easy

Getting there: Route 1: Bowen Ranch Trail Drive – From I-15 take the Bear Valley exit. If coming from the north turn left, turn right if coming from the south. Head east along Bear Valley road about 10 miles and hang a right on Central. Drive 3 miles to Ocotillo past the railroad tracks and over a steep hill. Turn left on Ocotillo for 2.2 miles to Bowen Ranch road. The road does turn to dirt during this portion. Turn right on Bowen Ranch road traveling another 6 miles arriving at the parking and trailhead area. Expect a winding road with blind curves and narrows a bit before reaching Bowen Ranch. There is a $5 parking fee at Bowen Ranch. Hike – The trailhead is at the south end of the parking lot and is clearly marked. The trail is about 2 miles long with an elevation change of about 900 feet. The hot springs are located on the opposite side of the creek, which you’ll need to ford. Be sure to follow the markers along the way, which will help keep you from getting lost to and from the springs. Bowen Ranch also provides a simplistic map of the trail.
