Entertainment & Activities

Soaking pools (the all-natural "heart-pool" features healthy minerals and the scent of sulfur) plus waterslides, a lap pool, fitness facilities and classes; bring a towel from SteamboatDigs to save renting one; can also rent lockers.

Parks & Nature

This is one of Steamboat's most unique and memorable places. Natural soaking pools, massage, a beautiful setting, and (for those so inclined) their relaxed clothing-optional designation (after dark) makes it a truly magical spot. Shuttle service: Though just a few miles from downtown, the road is rugged and fines are steep for getting stuck: they offer a shuttle service to save you the trouble of driving.

Stop #106-Sunray - 3 busses an hour (Green line only) - BEST TO GET HOME FROM THE MOUNTAIN: Hop off at the 5th stop after departing the Gondola Transit Center (Sunray Meadows/Sunburst) and reverse below directions (wind uphill through Sunray footpath).
