Guard on Duty: 4 Ways to Beat the Heat at Glenwood Hot Springs Pool

It’s getting hot out there! Try these stay-cool tips the next time you visit the Pool.

●     Pay attention to your hydration. There are water fountains throughout the property. Look for them near the restroom facilities and locker rooms. The Grill and Snack Bar also sell bottled water and a variety of hydrating drinks.

●     Find some shade. Go for dappled shade under the pergolas or full shade under the mature cottonwood trees near the deep end and above the terraced decks. At certain times of the day the shadow cast by the Spa of the Rockies building also provides shelter from the heat.

●     Eat cooling foods. Ice cream cones from the Snack Bar are a hit with kids of all ages. Healthier options that are served cold include lighter fare, like salads and wraps from the Grill.

●     Slide into coolness. Cool down quickly with a ride on Glenwood Hot Springs’ waterslides. Both the Shoshone Chute and the Avalanche Falls splash down into a refreshing pool of cool water
