Nestled in a scenic alpine meadow at 5,900 feet, Grover Hot Springs features two concrete pools: a hot pool (102-105°F) fed by mineral springs, and a warm swimming pool. The hot springs have attracted visitors for thousands of years. Surrounded by granite peaks and pine forests, the park offers excellent hiking into the Carson-Iceberg Wilderness. Hot Creek meanders through the meadow, providing trout fishing. Winter brings cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, with the pools remaining open year-round - magical when surrounded by snow.
