Iron Mountain Hot Springs
Geothermal retreat featuring 16 soaking pools, a family pool, and stunning Colorado River views
Summarized by AI
At Iron Mountain Hot Springs, you can move between 16 mineral-rich soaking pools of different shapes and temperatures, many overlooking the Colorado River and framed by mountain views. Families can enjoy the cooler freshwater family pool and attached elevated jetted spa, while adults head to the 21+ section with unique mineral “recipe” pools, a cold plunge, and a salt-rich float pool. Enjoy thoughtful touches like towel tree sculptures, chemical-free soaking in the smaller pools, convenient bathhouse facilities, and a café serving food, beer, wine, and other beverages.






Hanging Lake
Scenic hike leading to a stunning turquoise lake and picturesque waterfalls in Glenwood Canyon
Summarized by AI
At Hanging Lake, you’ll see crystal-clear turquoise water pooled on a travertine bed, moss-covered logs, and gentle waterfalls like Bridal Veil Falls dropping into a pristine cliffside lake. Walk the short spur to Spouting Rock to watch water shoot directly from a hole in the limestone cliff. To get there, hike a steep, rocky 1–1.5 mile trail with about 1,000–1,200 feet of gain; wear sturdy shoes, bring water, and respect all signs—no swimming, dogs, or walking on the log. A timed-entry permit and reservation are required, and checking trail status online is essential. Afterward, you can pair the hike with a soak at Glenwood Hot Springs or a visit to Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park in nearby Glenwood Springs.






Glenwood Hot Springs
Historic resort featuring the world's largest mineral hot springs pool, athletic club, and spa

Families get a huge warm main pool, kids’ splash zone, waterslides, Shoshone Chutes Adventure River, and a zero-entry area for little ones, plus re-entry throughout the day. Opt for the Athletic Club side for larger locker rooms, free towels, workout facilities, sauna, steam room, and classes. On-site you’ll also find a poolside grill with beer and wine (no alcohol at the pool), newer smaller pools including a cold plunge and adults-only area after 5 pm, and a short walk brings you to historic downtown, Yampah Spa & Vapor Caves, and Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park.






Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park
Mountain-top amusement park featuring thrilling rides, cave tours, and scenic gondola rides
Summarized by AI
Ride the gondola up to this mountaintop theme park and jump straight into big thrills like the Cliffhanger Roller Coaster, Giant Canyon Swing over a 1,300-foot cliff, Haunted Mine Drop, and Alpine Coaster. Go underground on guided tours of the Fairy Caves and Kings Row to see well-preserved formations and learn the mountain’s history. Fill the day with laser tag, the 4D Motion Theater, games, and family rides, then refuel at the Lookout Grille or Smokehouse while taking in panoramic Roaring Fork Valley views and occasional live music.






Rifle Falls State Park
Scenic park featuring a triple waterfall, easy hiking trails, and limestone caves
Summarized by AI
At Rifle Falls State Park, you can walk right up to a striking triple waterfall cascading about 70 feet over travertine cliffs into crystal-clear pools. Explore the short loop trails that take you above and behind the falls, wander through small limestone caves with a flashlight, and watch for trout in the pools and East Rifle Creek. Pack a picnic or fire up the BBQ pits in the day-use areas, then keep an eye out for mule deer, elk, and curious ground squirrels along the paths.






Village Smithy Restaurant
Summarized by AI
At Village Smithy, you can dig into hearty breakfasts and lunches, from Santa Fe cakes, the Santiago Skillet, and Huevos Rancheros to McHuevos, McGurks hash browns, the Smithy 7, and seasonal pancakes to share. Come on a weekend for eggs benedict, strong coffee, a loaded bloody, and excellent desserts, plus vegetarian-friendly options and locally sourced produce, eggs, and meats. Enjoy a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere in a historic homestead-turned-restaurant with a quaint rural feel, indoor seating, a big outdoor deck, and a locals’ coffee mug wall. Open since 1975 on Main Street, it’s a long-standing Carbondale favorite for breakfast and lunch.

All about Glenwood Springs
If all you know about Glenwood Springs is that it rests at the confluence of the Roaring Fork and Colorado rivers and is cradled by the snow-capped Rocky Mountains and red sandstone cliffs of Glenwood Canyon, you’d agree it had won the geographical lottery. But this town’s main draw originates below the surface: powerful geothermal activity. Starting in the 1880s, savvy landowners realized the naturally heated water that flowed from below ground was a tourism boon, and this pretty place has been a vacationland ever since. Visitors and locals alike luxuriate year-round in steaming pools amidst the breathtaking Colorado landscape. In the winter, nearby Sunlight Ski Resort comes to life with skiers and snowboarders navigating its 730 acres of powder and 2,000-foot vertical drop. Located about an hour from both Vail and Aspen, Glenwood Springs — with its historic and urbane downtown — has become a favored base for exploring Colorado’s ski hubs.
What are the top things to do in Glenwood Springs?
Iron Mountain Hot Springs
This resort offers 16 geothermal pools on a terraced hillside overlooking the Colorado River. Filled with natural mineral waters and heated from 98 to 108 degrees Fahrenheit, these pools reside in a quiet zone to maximize relaxation. The grounds include a bathhouse with changing rooms, lockers, and showers as well as a restaurant where you can fuel up after soaking all day.
Glenwood Caverns Adventure Park
This kitschy theme park claims to be the only one in the United States perched atop a mountain. You’ll find thrill rides set against the backdrop of the Rockies here, but perhaps the most compelling attraction is the network of caves it's built around. Park passes include tours of the caverns and the ornate formations within, such as stalactites, stalagmites, underground canyons, and colorful rocks tinted by hot thermal waters.
Whitewater Rafting
Glenwood Springs may be most famous for its hot thermal waters, but the grand Colorado River deserves your attention as well. Joining a whitewater rafting trip is a unique way to see the local landscape, as you paddle past the steep walls of Glenwood Canyon. This stretch of the river is ideal for novices, as the Shoshone Rapids that shoot rafters into the placid canyon stretch are thrilling but manageable. Several local tour operators offer guided day trips.
