We all seek wellness in different ways. Some people meditate, others sweat it out at the gym, and then there are the brave souls who dunk themselves into ice-cold water for the sake of health. Cold plunging may be invigorating, but hot springs are the most luxurious and relaxing path to well-being—and Durango Hot Springs Resort + Spa defies expectations.
With pristine, mineral-rich waters that contain over thirty-two therapeutic minerals yet lack the sulfur odor, you can soak in absolute serenity without the lingering scent of a chemistry experiment gone wrong. “The water is rich in beneficial minerals like lithium, magnesium, calcium, sodium, fluoride, silica, and iron, yet contains only trace amounts of sulfide, making the experience both therapeutic and enjoyable,” says Mason Quick, operations manager

Durango Hot Springs offers thirty-two outdoor mineral pools, a resort-style swimming pool, and five private cedar ofuro tubs for an intimate soaking experience. For those who must, there are also two cold plunge pools. The resort infuses its thermal waters with a trillion nanobubbles of medical-grade oxygen per liter, maximizing therapeutic benefits at the cellular level. This means deeper pain relief, improved circulation, accelerated healing, reduced stress levels, and even enhanced skin health.
Beyond the pools, Durango Hot Springs is a full-fledged wellness destination. Guests can indulge in expert massage therapies, organic facials, and specialty treatments at the on-site spa. The experience extends further with casual dining, live music, and a tranquil botanic garden best explored by walking barefoot along the reflexology paths.
With a commitment to sustainability, the resort is also a certified National Wildlife Federation habitat, home to over 250 plant species. So, if wellness is the goal, why not choose the warm, soothing embrace of Durango Hot Springs? Your body will thank you.
