All Nioh 3 Hot Spring Locations

From the second Shrine, follow the main path downhill until you reach the river crossing. Instead of crossing, turn left and follow the riverbank south for about 30 meters. The spring is in a small alcove behind a cluster of rocks, partially hidden by tall grass. You can hear the bubbling water before you see it.

Drop down from the castle rampart into the moat area beneath the main bridge. Instead of heading toward the castle gate, swim to the far east side of the moat. The spring is in a shallow cave carved into the moat wall, accessible only from the water. Look for the faint blue glow reflecting off the cave ceiling.

Enter the underground tunnels through the trapdoor near the blacksmith's forge. Follow the left wall until you reach a dead-end room with wooden support beams. The spring is in the back-right corner of this room, behind a stack of crates you need to break.

At the large waterfall in the northern section of Tenryu River, walk through the water curtain on the right side. Behind the waterfall is a small cave with the spring at the far end. This is one of the classic hidden-behind-waterfall spots that Nioh 3 loves to use.

On the eastern bank of the river, about halfway between the second and third Shrines. Look for a sandy beach area with a large flat rock. The spring is between two boulders on the beach, partially obscured by river reeds.

From the Shrine at the plateau's eastern edge, head south along the cliff face. After passing the enemy encampment, look for a narrow ledge path leading downward. Follow it to a shelf about 20 meters below the main plateau. The spring sits on this shelf with a panoramic view of the valley below.

Near the volcanic vent area in the southwestern corner of the foothills. The spring is next to a steam vent, making it hard to distinguish from the natural geothermal activity. Look for the distinct blue glow that separates it from the white volcanic steam.

Inside the magistrate's building, go to the basement level. The bathhouse is behind a locked sliding door that requires the Magistrate's Key, found on the roof of the same building. Once inside, the spring is in the center of the tiled bath.

In the back alley behind the large merchant warehouse. Enter the alley from the south side and look for a wooden fence with a gap you can squeeze through. The spring is in a small enclosed garden behind the fence, surrounded by bamboo.

Inside the large warehouse at the eastern end of the docks. The warehouse has two entrances but the spring is only visible from the second floor. Climb the cargo crates to reach the upper level, then look down into the open storage pit. Drop down to reach the spring.

Behind the main temple building, accessible through a side gate that only opens after you defeat the Onryoki mini-boss in the temple courtyard. The spring is in a serene garden with a stone lantern, easy to spot once you get through the gate.

In the underground escape tunnel that connects the magistrate's building to the river. Enter the tunnel from the riverside entrance (look for the stone archway near the bridge). Follow the tunnel north. The spring is in a widened section about halfway through, in an alcove on the left wall.

In the collapsed section of the outer castle wall. From the Shrine near the main gate, head east along the wall until you find the breach. Climb through the rubble into a partially flooded courtyard. The spring is in the deepest part of the flooded area, near the base of a crumbling tower.

At the abandoned inn on the outskirts road. Enter the inn through the broken front door and go to the back room. The floor has partially collapsed, revealing a natural spring beneath the building. Drop through the hole to reach it.

At the base of the grand torii gate, look for a winding path leading down to a natural pool fed by a small waterfall. The spring is at the edge of the pool, marked by a circle of white stones placed by ancient worshippers.

Near the dragon statue fountain in the center of the valley. The spring is directly in front of the statue where the water collects. You need to rotate the statue 90 degrees using the nearby lever mechanism to redirect the water flow and reveal the spring beneath.

Inside the largest burial mound (the one with the stone entrance). Follow the main corridor to the burial chamber, then take the left passage. The spring is in a natural cavern that the tomb builders incorporated into the mound structure.

Deep in the forest, near the small wooden shrine surrounded by shimenawa rope. The spring is about 10 meters east of the shrine, at the base of an enormous ancient tree. Follow the tree roots downhill to find it.

On a ledge overlooking the river, accessible via a grapple point on the cliff face. From the third Shrine, look for the grapple icon on the cliff to the south. Swing across to the ledge. The spring is at the far end, next to a prayer stone.

In the sunken garden area behind the main shrine hall. You need to drain the flooded garden by activating the sluice gate mechanism on the upper terrace. Once drained, drop into the garden. The spring is in the center, surrounded by now-exposed stone carvings.

After the first checkpoint in the siege mission, before pushing into the enemy camp. Turn right instead of following the objective marker and head toward the supply tents. The spring is behind the third tent, next to a stack of ammunition crates.

Inside the burning temple on the second floor. From the staircase, go left instead of right (right leads to the boss). The spring is in a room that is actively on fire. Sprint through the fire damage to reach it, or use a Water Talisman for safe passage.

In the poison cave section, after defeating the Tsuchigumo mini-boss. The spring is on an elevated platform above the main poison lake. Use the grapple point on the cave ceiling to reach it. The platform is safe from poison.

During the stealth section of the night raid mission, before you reach the enemy commander's tent. Hug the left wall of the camp perimeter. The spring is in a secluded corner behind the wooden palisade, barely visible in the dark. Listen for the bubbling sound.

About two-thirds of the way up the mountain path, at the rest point with the lone cherry blossom tree. The spring is just past the tree, on a small plateau overlooking the valley. Hard to miss if you explore the rest point instead of rushing the path.

In the underground section of the shrine, after the second dark corridor. Look for a faintly glowing side passage on the right wall. Follow it for about 15 meters to a small chamber with the spring. This is the most commonly missed Hot Spring in the entire game.
