Thermopolis

Thermopolis is a well-liked weekend getaway destination in Wyoming and the location of the largest mineral hot spring in the entire world. Additionally, because of a pact with Native American tribes, guests can unwind at Hot Springs State Park's relaxing springs, where the water is always 104 degrees. Star Plunge and Hellie's TePee Pools, two nearby water parks with admission fees, both provide indoor and outdoor pools with water slides, hot tubs, steam rooms, and gift shops.

Away from the springs, the town is surrounded by the Bighorn Canyon and Wind River. On the interpretive walk in the park, where bison are occasionally observed, you may take a leisurely stroll before or after a soak. Away from the springs, the town is bordered by the Bighorn Canyon and Wind River Canyon, which provide a variety of outdoor adventures.

Thermopolis is a must-see soaking paradise ideal for families, groups, single travelers, and couples. Alternatively, get ready for some hot springs water park action at Star Plunge, which offers water slides, pools, and even a "vapor cave," a natural steam room, if you want to take a peaceful bath in Hot Springs State Park's bathhouse.

However, Thermopolis has more attractions than just hot springs. Visit the Wyoming Dinosaur Center, take a tour on horseback, hire a guide for a fishing trip, or hike the state park's six miles of trails. You can choose to unwind or seek out the action.
