for water!
Walking Bath Row.
We visited an old bath house....
At 143-degrees, the natural springs produce almost one-million gallons of water each day. Where does it come from? A long journey of years and years that begins as rainwater in the Quachita Mountain range.
Rain falls within the Ouachita Mountain Valley where it slowly soaks through the soil, over time it reaches deep layers of the earth. At around 7,000 ft below the surface, the water heats and compresses before gravity causes it to rush to the surface and escape through 47 springs on the west side of Hot Springs Mountain.
