2026 Hot Springs in Montana
We’ve cataloged 6 hot springs in Montana, from 0 free & primitive pools to 4 resort experiences across the Cascadia & Columbia Plateau.
Montana balances backcountry wild soaks with classic full-service resorts in a way few states match. Our 6-spring Montana directory includes the historic mineral pools at Chico Hot Springs and Fairmont Hot Springs Resort, the soak-and-stay vibe at Bozeman Hot Springs, plus quieter destinations like Norris and Lolo Hot Springs along the Clark Fork and Yellowstone corridors. Water temperatures run 95°F–112°F, all are open year-round, and most see their busiest stretch during summer travel through Glacier and Yellowstone. Reservations are recommended at the resort decks; the rural soaks remain walk-up friendly almost all season.
Spring runoff can bury riverside pools—late summer has the clearest water.
