If relaxation is more your style, then kick back and enjoy our warm mineral waters and local swimming spots. You can also spend your leisure time fishing, hiking, biking or golfing.
Step back in time with our museums and architecture and discover our recently receonstructed historic downtown featuring a new suspended sidewalk overlooking Fall River, as well as several unique specialty stores, galleries, and artisan markets with one of a kind works from local artists.
Wind Cave National Park is located only miles north of Hot Springs. With a variety of ranger-led cave tours offered below ground as well as more than 30 miles of hiking trails on the surface, the park is a place of endless adventure.
Wind Cave dates back 320 million years, making it one of the world’s oldest caves. Wind Cave has one of the largest displays of boxwork, a fragile lattice formation made of calcite that adorns the cave walls and ceilings. Other rare formations contained in the cave include frostwork, popcorn, and helictite bushes—all whose
names are suggestive of their looks.
The first documented people to locate the cave were brothers Jesse and Tom Bingham, who in 1881 heard strange whistling sounds emanating from the ground. The sounds drew them to a hole, which they then showed to others.
Wind Cave is now the sixth longest cave in the world. In the more than 140 years since the cave’s discovery, cavers have explored and mapped over 160 miles of the cave’s complex system. For historical perspective, when the National Park Service officially began managing Wind Cave in 1903, fewer than 10 miles of cave were known. By 2001, that number had increased to 100 miles. In 2019 the park celebrated surpassing 150 miles of mapped passageways, and in 2022, more than 160 miles. The total length of the cave currently sits just below 170 miles.
Though the park is better known for its miles of explored underground passages, visitors can also explore Wind Cave above the ground, in one of the nation’s lushest and most pristine prairie grasslands. Here exists an incredible prairie ecosystem

and ponderosa pine forest that includes a diverse mix of wildlife roaming freely throughout the park’s 33,971 acres.
Just before the busiest part of the tourist season in 2024, the park’s tours were suspended for nearly a year while the cave’s entire elevator system was replaced and modernized. Thankfully in January 2025 the park announced that cave tours had resumed for all to enjoy.

In addition to the work that was recently completed on Wind Cave’s elevator, the community of Hot Springs is also now celebrating the completion of a three-year downtown reconstruction project which replaced more than two miles of concrete surfacing of U.S. Hwy. 385 as well as curb/ gutter and underground utilities.
One of the projects most anticipated and unique aspects was the construction of a 400 yard long suspended sidewalk that runs along North River Street, across from Centennial Park. The new walkway overlooks Fall River and also includes a pair of pedestrian bridges which brings people to the Freedom Trail, waterfall and Kidney Springs gazebo. This new centerpiece of Hot Springs’ downtown area promises to become a hub of new activity while also emphasizing the already important aspects of Centennial Park which plays home to such events as the Main Street Arts & Crafts Festival in June, weekly Farmer’s Markets from June to October and the Fall River Hot Air Balloon Festival’s Night Glow and other events.
A new series of events planned for this summer in Centennial Park is the Rockin’ Riverside Summer Concert Series that will feature live music primarily on the first and third Saturdays of each month in June, July and August. See page 28 for a full listing of the concert schedule.
The new suspended sidewalk along North River Street spans a 1/4 mile from the Jennings Avenue bridge to near the Kidney Springs gazebo. The walk, located across from Centennial Park, overlooks Fall River, the waterfall and the Freedom Trail.
One of the highlights of this year’s 10th annual Fall River Hot Air Balloon Festival will be the Night Glow, which takes place next to Fall River between Centennial Park and the new suspended sidewalk.
In the autumn of 1881, Dr. R.D. Jennings, an Ohio-born physician who came to Dakota Territory in the 1870s, traveled to the Minnekahta Valley and immediately obtained the title to the site where “hot, crystal-clear water flowed from the living sandstone to fill a large basin that had been carved into the shape of a moccasin.” There he operated the town’s first bath house, the present-day location of Moccasin Springs Natural Mineral Spa, which has been welcoming visitors since 2019.
In 1890, “public-spirited capitalist” Fred T. Evans began construction of Evans Plunge (known then as the Plunge Bath), which was “the world’s largest enclosed natural warmwater swimming pool at the time.”
Evans Plunge, considered the first manmade tourist attraction of the Black Hills, officially opened in May of 1891. Since 2013, Evans Plunge Mineral Springs has been owned by the City of Hot Springs.
The quiet and peaceful Minnekahta Valley then went from a few scattered homesteader cabins to a health resort destination. Soon the downtown area boasted architecturally unique sandstone buildings. Among some of the new attractions of the bustling city
Humans have made the Hot Springs area their home for centuries because of one valuable resource: WATER . It is an oasis in a region that was once labeled as the “Great American Desert.”
It has been reported that for thousands of years, many different Native American groups utilized the natural warm springs in the Vale of Minnekahta. In the more recent past, the Cheyenne and Lakota bathed in “the valley of the healing waters,” and the area is known as wiwila kata (warm springs) in the Lakota language.
The waters of Hot Springs were first officially documented in 1875 by a U.S.
government scientific expedition led by Walter P. Jenney, a geologist. Lt. Col. Richard Irving Dodge accompanied the surveying party and wrote in his journal: “Suddenly a fine large stream… springs from the bottom of the gorge… this stream is called by the Indians Minne-catta, or Warm Water Creek, the temperature of the water where it bursts from the ground being entirely too warm for drinking purposes.”

Founded in 1891, Evans
Yet major settlement and development of what is now Hot Springs did not occur until years later when Dr. Rudolphus D. Jennings traveled to the Minnekahta Valley.
for health-seekers and tourists were the Minnekahta Bath House and Hot Springs Hotel (built in 1886 by the Dakota Hot Springs Company; present site of Moccasin Springs), Gillespie Hotel (1890), Stewart Bath House (1891), Evans Hotel (1892), Siloam Bath and Plunge (1893), and Battle Mountain Sanitarium (1907). The local newspaper once proclaimed: “Hot Springs is the resort of the northwest. Hot Springs should be [the] resort of the world.”
The now lively city benefitted from nationwide tourism campaigns as well as increased accessibility. Not one but two railroads decided to connect Hot Springs to the outside world, with the Fremont, Elkhorn and Missouri Valley rails (via Buffalo Gap) completed by 1889 and the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy by 1890 (via Edgemont). The completion of these railroad lines “became a significant turning point in the long-range success” of the city.
Throughout the city, there are many original sandstone and other architecurally unique historic buildings which have helped make Hot Springs famous. Visit www.SoakInHotSprings.com to learn more and plan your historic walking tour. At this website, you will be able to read about 37 different builings, most of which are made of locally quarried sandstone.
The Cultural Development Organization made possible many murals in the community. From the “Reflections” mural on the side of Evans Plunge to the “Spirit of the Springs” mural next to the Police Station (above), there are a total of 8 large murals currently in town, with plans for more to be painted in the future.
In addition to the murals, there are also a few downtown businesses which specialize in artistic endeavors including The Art House (pictured), Blue Horn Gallery, Fall River Fibers and Chautauqua Artisans Market, to name just a few.

National Bank, it occupied its present historic registry location since 1917. The bank merged with its affiliate (Homestead Bank) in 2021. At Homestead Bank, we take a common-sense approach to consumer agricultural and business banking. It’s helped us stay fiscally strong, standing the tests of time, economic downturns, and weather. As a result, we’ve continued to grow with our communities, taking pride in the fact that so many consumers, farmers, ranchers and commercial businesses have turned to us for financial assistance.
