Kootenay Rockies Hot Springs

Revitalizing, natural mineral hot springs abound in the Kootenay Rockies region. Soak in perfect comfort, surrounded by canyons, deep forests, flowing rivers, and ancient peaks. Kootenay Rockies hot springs are known for their therapeutic benefits: the mineral content of the waters may increase metabolism, accelerate healing, soothe muscles, improve blood circulation, and detoxify the body's lymphatic system.

Drive the Hot Springs Circle Route for the ultimate in relaxing road trips.


Ainsworth

Ainsworth Hot Springs is set along the west shore of the Kootenay Lake, against a backdrop of the Purcell Mountains.

Ainsworth Hot Springs Resort is open year-round, offering great accommodation and fine dining.

Nakusp

A hidden gem found in a narrow canyon of the Kootenay Rockies, Nakusp Hot Springs' pools are set against an enchanting mountain landscape 12km/7mi of Nakusp.
