Lava Hot Springs Olympic Swimming Complex

"The Lava Hot Springs Olympic Swimming Complex offers a refreshing and invigorating experience nestled in the heart of Lava Hot Springs, Idaho. Perfect for a summer getaway, this complex features a range of pools, including an Olympic-sized pool, diving platforms, water slides, and a kids' area, ensuring fun for visitors of all ages. Whether you're seeking relaxation or excitement, the naturally heated mineral water provides a soothing and therapeutic soak. While closed during the winter months, this stop remains optional for road trippers. Even if you decide not to visit, it's worth noting the massive slides that pass over the "Welcome to Lava Hot Springs" sign, adding to the charm of this quaint city named after its natural hot springs. My previous visits to this area have left lasting memories, but during our road trip in early December, we opted to skip this stop to beat the tourist season at the national parks."
