Takhini Hot Springs

Takhini Hot Springs can be found near Whitehorse (Yukon) and is a popular place for travelers to visit. It is open from October through April. A hot and a warm pool were both created by the local company.
At 118 degrees, the water is rising from the ground and it is cooled to approximately 107 degrees in a hot pool and 97 degrees at the warm pool. You should go back and forth to each hotspring to get maximum healing benefits.
Takhini Hot Springs has the unique quality of not having the sulfur smell of other pools. According to research, hot water rises from two faults and is mixed with water which absorbs into the ground. When the water is heated, many minerals melt to create the natural water we can enjoy. This can take 60 years to get the water into the Takhini Pools.
The hair freezing contest is also available if you visit the hot spring in Canada in February. It sounds odd, but it is an annual tradition. You will see incredible hairstyles that seem to freeze in no time.
