There was a lot of well maintained pathways to walk around to enjoy the nature of the hot springs.

The Hot Springs are world reknown and have a healing effect. This is a true destination spot well worth the long grueling drive out in the middle of no where. You can bathe at no charge in the state run bath house thanks to the Indian Chief who negotiated the transfer of ownership to the government requiring that the healing... More

World's largest mineral hot springs! Fascinating and colorful mineral formations created by century's of mineral water flow. A board walk leads you around the pools and water flows. A "don't miss" for the mid-Wyoming traveler. More
