Park

Riverside Park boasts a playground with a rock climbing wall for kids, a river walk, picnic tables, large shade trees and grassy areas. The bandshell is often the location for free music or movies, as well as many festivals. A fun spot to watch kayakers, rafters, surfers and inner-tubers navigate the river park.

Soaking spot

Local Hotspring Pools.
While there are many hotspring options in the area, I really enjoy a day, or even a few hours, at Mt. Princeton Hot Springs. It is located along Chalk Creek with high peaks to the west. They offer a wide range of classes at the spa, both in the gym and in the various pools - check the website for the schedule. The spa also has a smoothie/snack bar. There is a nice restaurant in the lodge as well. Very relaxing!

This hot springs is about 25 minutes south of Salida. The pools are small and vary in temperature to allow options for soaking. Pools are emptied each evening and refilled for the next day. Beautiful views of the valley and the Sangre de Cristo mountains. There is a large labyrinth on the property as well.

Favorite hikes

The Greens Creek trail winds along a clear mountain stream and into a beautiful stretch of aspen trees. There are beaver dams and pools upstream and abundant wildflowers. Continue on the trail to reach Marshall Pass.
