Granite Hot Springs near Jackson

Granite Hot Springs is a developed, spring-fed concrete soaking pool in Bridger-Teton National Forest. Plan around the access season rather than treating it as a roadside swimming stop. The pool and the nearby creek are different settings; this listing does not recommend entering Granite Creek or the waterfall.

Summer road access and winter travel

Granite Creek Road is the final unpaved approach, approximately 10 miles long. Summer visitors can drive when the road is open. Jackson Hole tourism guidance says the road is closed to cars from November through April, but that is not a promise of opening on a particular date. Check road conditions and pool operation before leaving.

Winter access involves snow travel, such as a snowmobile outing or an arranged dog-sled trip. Independent skiers must plan for the return journey as well as the approach. A guided trip may suit visitors unfamiliar with winter travel here. Transport availability and pool opening are separate things to confirm.

Fees, facilities and what to bring

Call 307-690-6323 for opening hours, admission prices and payment arrangements. We have removed the old 2010 fee rather than presenting it as a usable budget. A dressing room is documented by the local tourism board. Bring your own swimsuit, towel, drinking water and weather-appropriate layers, and ask about any accessibility needs before making the journey.

Camping and trip planning

Granite Creek Campground is a separate Forest Service camping destination in the same corridor. Check its current booking information and notices on Recreation.gov. Do not assume a roadside pullout permits overnight camping. The campground warns visitors to secure food and other scented items against bears.

Check before setting out

This is a desk-reviewed planning guide, not a same-day opening report or a water-temperature measurement. Follow current pool rules and staff instructions. Neither photographs nor a map pin establish present access conditions.

Getting There

From the Jackson and Hoback Junction area, follow US-189/191 toward the signed Granite Creek Road turnoff. The final approach follows approximately 10 miles of unpaved Granite Creek Road. Check current road access and pool opening before departure. In winter, do not plan to drive the final road: arrange suitable snow transportation or plan an equipped out-and-back ski trip. Confirm the winter parking arrangement with your operator.

Access Notes

Confirm seasonal road and pool opening separately. Winter car access is unavailable; arrange snow travel and a return plan. The existing map coordinate is approximate and not a verified entrance.

Plan Your Visit

Parking & Access

Confirm the entrance, parking arrangements, and legal access with the land manager. A map pin does not establish a public right of access. Follow posted routes and never block gates or driveways.

Regulations & Fees

Current swimming permission has not been independently confirmed for this listing. Check official rules, fees, hours, and closures before visiting. Public park access does not necessarily include permission to swim. Respect private property and posted restrictions.

Seasonality & Flow

Water conditions can change quickly. This listing does not provide a current safety or water-quality assessment. Check official alerts and avoid entering water when conditions or permission are uncertain.

What to Bring

Bring sturdy water shoes to protect your feet on rocks and slippery surfaces. A waterproof dry bag keeps your phone, keys, and valuables safe. Pack a quick-dry towel, sun protection, and drinking water - never drink from the natural water source.

Nearby Facilities

Nearby places from saved public map data, not necessarily facilities at the swimming spot. Confirm access, hours, fees, and amenities with the operator before you drive.
