Take a Dip at "Hippie" Hot Springs
Jackson, Wyoming
Description
Added by Christina Adele Warburg-Hon
Clean, comfortable and scenic. At the base of a waterfall in the National Forest. Perfect for a lazy afternoon or an evening under the stars. There is a $6.00 fee to swim at these springs.
Hippie Hot Springs is definitely one of the better kept secrets in the area. In fact, locals will probably get mad that I am even letting others know about it. Recently the Park Service has really cracked down on people illegally bathing in the more popular hot springs up near Flagg Ranch. The good news is that those northern hot springs are far inferior to these beautiful southern ones anyway.
Hippie Hot Springs are leaps and bounds cleaner and clearer with a more comfortable temperature. In addition, they are much more scenic than any other hot springs in the area. These hot springs are slightly larger than a hot tub, have clear turquoise water, and are right at the base of two waterfalls. Perfect for afternoon with friends or a romantic night while stargazing.
If you prefer something a little more developed, a mile up the road is Granite Hot Springs. That is a developed pool with bathrooms and a small snack bar.
Tip: This spot is better in late summer, autumn or winter when the water levels in the creek are lower, making it easier to cross. In the winter these are accessible only by over snow transportation.
