Best hot springs in Utah
Utah is hot-springs country — we’ve mapped 5 of its best, from resort, primitive, developed soaks. Pick your style, then build the trip around a good long soak.
Mystic Hot SpringsResort
soak in vintage bathtubs on a travertine hillside.
Homestead CraterResort
swim and even scuba inside a 55-ft-deep limestone dome.
Fifth Water (Diamond Fork)Primitive
a 4.5-mile hike to turquoise pools and a hot waterfall.
Meadow Hot SpringsPrimitive
clear, deep desert pools on private land open to the public.
Crystal Hot SpringsDeveloped
a family pool complex with one of the highest mineral contents anywhere.
Soak smart: water temps vary and can scald, primitive pools are use-at-your-own-risk, and access, permits, and clothing-optional rules change. Check current conditions and never soak alone in remote spots.
