'''The Distant Spring''' is the fourth area Olimar discovers on [[Pikmin (game)|his first visit]] to the [[Pikmin Planet]]. It is part of a huge wetland at the edge of the forest (and thusly named "Distant Spring"). The terrain is mostly aquatic with unique creatures spread throughout. This land also is home to a plurality of [[Captain Olimar|Captain Olimar's]] missing ship parts, of which there are ten. The [[Perplexing Pool]] bears resemblance to the Distant Spring. They feature similar maps and similar looking ledges, and the same tree trunks. However, several gates are gone in the Perplexing Pool.

[[File:DS_texture.png|thumb|100px|The radar pattern for The Distant Spring.]]The Distant Spring is the largest area in the first ''Pikmin'' game. Water covers a great portion of the area. In the center lies the landing site, along with several hollow tree stumps. To the North is a small pond where the [[Number 2 Ionium Jet]] and the [[Chronos Reactor]] can be found. To the East, a wall maze with the [[UV Lamp]] can be found, blocked by a small path full with [[Spotty Bulbear]]s, [[Puffy Blowhog]]s, and [[Dwarf Bulbear]]s. To the West are the places with the [[Gluon Drive]], [[Zirconium Rotor]], and [[Pilot's Seat]], which are located in large tree stumps. Finally, to the South lies a small river with some islands where the [[Smoky Progg]] (before day 15) and the [[Interstellar Radio]] (inside a [[Puffy Blowhog]]) can be found. There are several [[Water Dumple]]s in this area.

The Distant Spring is the fourth area Olimar discovers on his first visit to the Pikmin Planet. It is part of a huge wetland at the edge of the forest (and thusly named "Distant Spring"). The terrain is mostly aquatic with unique creatures spread throughout. This land also is home to a plurality of Captain Olimar's missing ship parts, of which there are ten. The Perplexing Pool bears resemblance to the Distant Spring. They feature similar maps and similar looking ledges, and the same tree trunks. However, several gates are gone in the Perplexing Pool.

General layout

The Distant Spring is the largest area in the first Pikmin game. Water covers a great part of the area. In the center lies the landing site, along with several hollow tree stumps. To the north is a small lake where the Number 2 Ionium Jet and the Chronos Reactor can be found. To the east, a wall maze with the UV Lamp can be found, blocked by a small path full with Spotty Bulbears and Dwarf Bulbears. To the west are the places with the Gluon Drive, Zirconium Rotor, and Pilot's Seat which are located in large tree stumps. Finally, to the south lies a gigantic lake with some islands where the Smoky Progg and the Interstellar Radio (inside a Puffy Blowhog) can be found. There are several Water Dumples in this area.

Bomb-rocks in this area are found in giant skulls; the creatures they once belonged to being as of now unknown. One of them is inside a hollow tree stump guarded by a Spotty Bulbear near the landing site, and another one in the beach where the Massage Machine is found. There is another skull near the pool with Wogpoles to the west.

In Challenge Mode, Spotty Bulborbs are found all over the land area. Pearly Clamclamps are also found in different locations.
