“What we love most about having our dental practice in Ridgway is that it’s a destination! Not just any destination, but one where the people are down to Earth, where the sense of community is strong and where we feel that our patients are our family.”
Relax & Rejuvenate at World-Famous Hot Springs
Known for our sunny skies and healing waters, the Ridgway area is the perfect destination for revitalizing your body, mind, and soul. Throughout the year, you can soak in the area’s hot springs – a centuries-old tradition. Nothing tops off a winter day like a soak in our sulfur-free hot springs, some shopping downtown, a warm meal and drink at one of our cozy restaurants, and a soft bed to fall into.
Orvis Hot Springs has seven soaking areas (four outside and three inside), a sauna and natural landscaping, offering a variety of experiences for the avid soaker. The waters, ranging from 90 degrees to 112 degrees Fahrenheit, have seven main naturallyoccurring minerals with various health benefits, including lithium that soothes and melts stress away. Most soaking areas here are clothing optional.
In operation since 1927, the Ouray Hot Springs Pool provides relaxation, family fun, and amazing views of the surrounding peaks, dramatic sunsets, and starry skies. A multimillion-dollar renovation project, completed in 2018, expanded soaking pools, play areas, and accessibility for all users.
You can also find more secluded and private soaking at hot springs and jacuzzis in area hotels. Most can be accessed with or without an overnight stay.
