Here’s a fun fact: when the summertime comes around, Ouray tourism increases exponentially to double the size of the town itself! This can be attributed to a number of reasons, from the deeply rich history to the hot springs.
Speaking of hot springs, most of these thermal springs can be found throughout the western area of the United States. They have developed fame for their alleged healing and rejuvenation abilities and they remain a popular attraction. In fact, many of Colorado’s mountain towns depend on hot springs as a major economic driver.
A number of Colorado hot springs have been around for decades, if not centuries. Many of these hot springs have received an “under the hood” makeover to modernize them for today’s technology without sacrificing their essence while also making them more sustainable. Here in Ouray, for example, most of the hot springs allow ADA access and they can accommodate more people than ever before.
