Ouray Hot Springs Pool and Fitness Center
Ouray,
Colorado
Splash and play in Ouray’s sulfer-free hot springs pool.
After an exhilarating adventure on foot, or climbing up a wall of ice, or a pleasant day of shopping Ouray’s unique businesses, soaking in the hot springs and viewing the snow-covered canyon walls from the water in winter is truly a restorative experience.
No matter how old or young, the Ouray Hot Springs Pool is family-friendly. In the summer, there is a volleyball net for the competitive family reunions or a battle against friends, a rock wall for those climbers that can never get enough, water slides for the adrenaline junkies, a rolling fun key log, and of course, an adult-only soaking section for those who seek relaxation and serenity.
Our famous sulfur-free hot springs are the perfect part of your Ouray getaway.
The Soaking Experience
THE WATERS
Sulfer-Free = Stink Free!
Ouray County’s hot springs are free of the strong sulfur (“rotten egg”) smell that you encounter at many other hot springs. This has to do with our water’s mineral content and our local geology. Ouray is located along a large geological lift at the head of the Uncompahgre Valley and the pressure and heat from this activity resulted in a series of clean and odorless hot springs. The same geologic forces that made the town rich in minerals and ore also produced some of the largest and most pleasant hot springs in the United States. For more information on the history of the Ouray Hot Springs Pool and other hot springs history in the Uncompahgre River Valley, be sure to visit the Ouray County Historical Society & Museum.

POOL & WATER FEATURE COUNT:
THE CULTURE
Family-friendly and relaxed soaking is our priority. In the summer we ramp up the play opportunities with two waterslides. a Wibbit, and an activity pool with rock wall. In the cooler months, soaking and relaxation is the focus. We also have a regulation lap pool that stays open all winter. Year round opportunities for soaking will always offer the relaxation you need every day of the week.
