The sun is out, there’s still a nip in the air and we can’t imagine a better time to cozy up in one of the many Alberta hot springs, but choose wisely!
If you’re among the many who need to defrost after a long winter, we’d recommend visiting Miette, the hottest mineral pool in Wild Rose Country.
Located in Jasper National Park, this scenic destination offers a day of relaxation, and if you play your cards right, is a great place to make a memory or two.
Surrounded by snow-covered mountains and towering trees, Miette has both cold plunge areas and (of course) hot pools – which are the warmest in the province.
According to Travel Alberta, the natural hot springs water actually flows from the mountain at 54°C before being cooled to a comfortable temperature of 40°C (104°F) which is sure to help you wind down.
Interested? It won’t be long until you can check them out.
Miette Hot Springs will reopen on May 3rd, 2024 at $17.50 per adult.
Small bites and bottled non-alcoholic beverages are available through vending machines, but there is no cafe or restaurant on site so pack smart, have fun and don’t forget to take photos!
Happy travelling!
