About this place

Rustic hot springs in Fohorem offer a serene natural soak and scenic village ambiance.

Nestled in the hills near Fohorem village, Fohorem Hot Springs offers visitors the chance to soak in naturally heated mineral waters surrounded by tranquil rural scenery. Popular with locals, these rustic pools provide a peaceful spot to relax aching muscles after a long journey or a day exploring the scenic Covalima region.

The hot springs are basic and undeveloped, but their charm lies in their untouched natural state. Local residents often use these pools for relaxation and traditional wellness purposes. Visitors are welcome to bathe; however, basic facilities are minimal, so it’s important to come prepared. The springs are hottest near the source—always test the water before entering and supervise children closely.

Access involves driving on a rough village road from Suai (about 1-1.5 hours), and the area is best visited in the morning when it’s cooler and less crowded. Bring your own towel and a change of clothes, and consider packing some refreshments, as there are no shops or restaurants nearby.
