Hot Springs count as collectibles in Nioh 3 that are marked on the map once players increase their exploration levels. Interacting with the Hot Springs can give players a temporary healing buff, which is useful while exploring the surrounding areas. Finding some of the Hot Springs can be a bit difficult because they are hidden behind fake walls or secret passages. There are eight Hot Springs in the Heian era in Nioh 3, and all their locations are listed in the guide below.

Finding all the Hot Springs gives players the Spa Lover trophy or achievement.
