The spring sits on a slope in Nohak-dong near the Seoraksan entrance. The water comes up at 53°C, so your calves warm first when you step in. The open-air bath leaves the sky overhead, which suits legs that just came down from the trail. It opened in 1985 and locals have gone for decades. The jjimjilbang costs extra.
