Steamboat Springs Visitors' Guide Spring 2017

HOT SPRINGS STRAWBERRY PARK HOT SPRINGS Strawberry Park Hot Springs is the quintessential place to relax in Steamboat Springs. Float beneath the blue sky by day, or the starry sky at night in geothermal waters tucked in the forest just outside the Mount Zirkel Wilderness. Thermal waters flow from the hillside into a snowmelt creek, where they cool to the ultimate soaking temperatures. Warm pools vary in temperature and are bordered by a cold stream, which is perfect for a cool plunge. Kick back on the stone seating while you feel the sand beneath your feet, and listen to the water flowing by. The atmosphere is rustic and facilities are basic including a teepee for changing and several picnic areas. Massage is offered on site and overnight accommodation in cabins is available. Getting there: The springs are located approximately seven miles from downtown Steamboat, including three miles of unimproved dirt road. Four-wheel drive or chains are mandatory from November 1 to May 1 and strict fines are enforced on this often-hazardous stretch of road. From U.S. 40 (Lincoln Avenue), turn north on Third Street. Turn right onto Fish Creek Falls Road and follow it up the hill. Turn left onto Amethyst Drive. Stay on Amethyst Drive through the residential neighborhoods and past schools until it merges with County Road 36. Turn right onto County Road 36 and follow it to the dead end where the parking lot is located.
