Belgian Pool is a hot spring in the Upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. Originally named Oyster Spring, it was renamed after a visitor from Belgium fell into it in 1929{{cite gnis|id=1829165|name=Belgian Pool|accessdate=2011-02-12}}{{Verify source|date=July 2024|reason=Cannot find the 'vertical case file' mentioned in source}} with fatal results. The spring is less hot than other features in the area, at about {{convert|180|°F|°C}}, but still sufficiently hot for severe thermal burns. References to a "Belgian Geyser" in the 1930s may refer to this feature.{{cite book|last=Bryan|first=T.
