There is something magical about sitting in a warm pool when the ground and trees are covered in snow and the air is crisp and chilly. Soaking in the hot water after a long day of winter activities is the cherry on top for the perfect snow day. 

If you’re looking for a very special experience this holiday season, explore one of the 4 best hot springs to visit this winter!

4 Best Hot Springs to Visit this Winter

1. Strawberry Park Natural Hot Springs

Strawberry Park Hot Springs is nestled in the cozy town of Steamboat Springs, Colorado in the Rocky Mountains. While you’re welcome to enjoy the pools for the day, I’d recommend taking advantage of Strawberry Park’s lodging for the ultimate experience. That way, you can enjoy the hot springs in the evening and explore other activities that Colorado has to offer like snowshoeing or cross country skiing. 

2. Riverbend Hot Springs

Along the Rio Grande in New Mexico are a variety of hot springs that have been considered sacred by Apache and Mimbres tribes. The Riverbend Hot Springs is the only hot springs resort you’ll find along the bank of the river. Here you’ll enjoy a wide array of pools and incredible views. Once you’re there, you’ll understand why it’s one of the best hot springs to visit this winter.

3. Calistoga Spa Hot Springs

In the heart of Napa Valley lies the Calistoga Spa Hot Springs. Soak in relaxing hot waters, visit the nearby vineyards, or enjoy a hot air balloon ride. There’s something for everyone to enjoy!

4. Dunton Hot Springs

A stone’s throw from Telluride is the small ghost town of Dunton. At Dunton Hot Springs, you’ll find luxury cabins, yummy meals, various hiking trails, and steamy hot springs. Dunton sounds like the ultimate place for a dreamy hot springs vacation.
