The spa at Hells gate is a Kengen venture at Olkaria II geothermal power station. It is operated by the geothermal company as a hot spring by allowing some of the hot underground water that would otherwise hav been used to generate electricity, to collect into a pool (after going through two cooling stages). Not much of swimming goes on there really as most people are just frolicking in the hot water. On account of the temperature, the spa features a baby pool.
Getting there
Drive, walk and ride through hells gate until you get to olkaria II
