Soak at the Best Hot Springs in Santa Fe
The Old-World Charm of Santa Fe is on display everywhere you turn. This winter is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in the different cultural elements of Northern New Mexico, including its centuries-old reputation as a destination for health, wellness, and healing. Our city is one of the best places in the world to let your mind, body, and soul recharge, and the hot springs in Santa Fe are a great place to start.
Whether you’re looking for a way to warm up after a chilly afternoon cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or otherwise exploring in the Santa Fe area, or are looking to take advantage of the legendary healing properties of these waters, there are several excellent hot springs in Santa Fe to consider visiting this winter. Though some hot springs are right here in the city, most are just outside the city proper and even tucked into the nearby mountain foothills. These wellness centers range from rugged and rocky outcroppings on a naturally hot creek to high-end wellness-focused retreat centers with spas, hot springs, and more.
We recommend you get a taste of more than one of these hot springs in Santa Fe. We’ve curated a list of some of our favorites below.
- One of the most popular hot springs in Santa Fe is Ojo Caliente Mineral Hot Springs & Spa. Though their original location is just north of Santa Fe (and worth visiting!), there’s now an Ojo Caliente Resort in the heart of Santa Fe. Both offer similar world-class Santa Fe Day Spa and hot springs experiences.
- Another top-rated choice for hot springs in Santa Fe is Ten Thousand Waves Spa, a Japanese-style spa with hot tubs, massages, skin treatments, and luxurious hot springs you won’t want to miss. This is one of the best high-end wellness retreats in Santa Fe.
- If you’re out exploring the mountain towns of Northern New Mexico this winter, consider visiting Jemez Hot Springs. Their outdoor pools are filled with water from beneath the Valles Caldera National Preserve, and it’s where high-end wellness retreats meet rustic hot springs in Santa Fe.
- Don’t miss San Antonio Hot Springs for an adventurous hike in a clothing-optional hot spring in northern New Mexico. The rock pools here are built into the hillside of San Diego Canyon, which means breathtaking views and hardly any crowds await. It’s often accessible in the winter and is a truly unique experience.
- Finally, the last hike-in option for hot springs in Santa Fe to consider is Spence Hot Springs. The pools here are naturally occurring and are a little easier to reach than San Antonio Hot Springs. You may find a few people here, but it will generally be a quiet and rewarding experience.
More Treatments at a Santa Fe Day Spa
If you do nothing more than visit hot springs in Santa Fe, it will have been a winter getaway well spent. However, there are far more things to do in Santa Fe than soak your days away.
