Nanitch › All spots › Hot springs in Alaska
There are not many hot springs in Alaska and getting to them is the entire problem — several are road-inaccessible for part of the year, and a couple are fly-in. This is a short list on purpose; it is what exists, not a sample.
Alaska's statute is AS § 11.41.460 — it requires exposing the genitals “with reckless disregard for the offensive, insulting, or frightening effect” the act may have.
It is not drafted to reach ordinary, non-sexual nudity.
That is not the same as “it's legal here.” Counties and cities legislate separately, and whoever manages the ground — State Parks, the Forest Service, BLM, a county, a private owner — sets its own rules on top. Check the land manager for the spot you're actually going to.
Nanitch is a map, not a law firm, and none of this is legal advice. Rules change and enforcement is local — if it matters, check with the agency that manages the land before you go. Statute last read August 2026.

Named hot springs imported from OpenStreetMap that nobody has confirmed yet. They are on the map and in the app, and they get a page here the moment someone reports back from one — not before. Listing every one of them:
A further 1 hot springs in Alaska are on the map with no name of their own — OpenStreetMap records them only as “hot spring”. They are on the map; there is nothing to call them by here.
