Secluded, undeveloped natural sulphur springs are located 5 kilometres south of Elkford. The spring was once known across the region for its reputed medicinal abilities. The location has a raw diving board, picnic area, and a seven-foot trough cut out of spruce wood that serves as a makeshift tub for those daring enough to have a real wilderness experience. The water temperature is around 20 ℃, which is safe to swim in. The dug-out log may be found in the parking area along the boardwalk. The region is also home to various species, including moose, elk, and deer.
These sulphur springs are located about 5 km South of Elkford. The tourist information centre in Elkford has a handout with very good directions to the site.
