At Banff Upper Hot Springs, you can enjoy the perfect post-hike or apres-ski soak. These natural hot mineral springs lie in the Canadian Rockies and are a great way to soothe the body and mind after time at the UNESCO World Heritage site of Banff National Park. This historic bathhouse near Banff is open daily, 10 a.m.–10 p.m., and also includes a gift shop and café.
Or, if your travels take you closer to Jasper National Park, you can’t miss a dip at Miette Hot Springs. Combining tranquility with wellness, these springs are the hottest in the Canadian Rockies. The water cools from 129 degrees to 104 degrees as it enters the hot springs pool.
