Hot Springs in Elgeyo Marakwet Kureswo Hot Springs: A Peaceful Haven The remote Kureswo hot springs, found in the southern area of Elgeyo Marakwet, in Kaptuk, have some treasured warm waters to enjoy a bath. A favoured retreat for the locals, who literally strip down, it lacks nothing in adventure. So much so, the locals believe that their ancestors, and the spirit of people who did good deeds, ascended to these hillocks, to dwell and revel in this peaceful haven. And akin to the locals, they too would descend down to Kureswo hot springs and take a healthful shower as they compared notes on how to best protect their people. Kureswo hot spring waters are suitable for medical purposes especially for skin therapy owing to the presence of rich sulphur and sulphate ions. The mineral composition of the thermal waters reflects the geological formations found at the site and possibly the depth of its origin.
