About Stinking Springs (Old Indian Hot Springs)
Stinking Springs, also known as Old Indian Hot Springs, offers a rustic geothermal experience in Corrine, Utah. This primitive hot spring features three cement pools filled with naturally warm, sulfur-rich water that soothes and invigorates. Its strong mineral scent and historic roots give the site an earthy authenticity few hot springs in Utah can match.
Getting There
You reach the springs by car with no hiking involved, making it an accessible stop along the way. Parking is limited nearby, so plan to arrive early or be prepared for a short walk from available spaces. The site’s simple layout puts you close to the pools without any paved paths or marked trails.
What to Expect
Warm water hovers around 111°F, inviting you to soak at your own pace in a tranquil setting. The atmosphere remains quiet, rarely crowded, providing a peaceful retreat from busier Utah swimming holes. Facilities are minimal—just the three cement pools—and the environment encourages a respectful, low-impact visit.
Tips for Visitors
You can visit year-round as the water temperature stays comforting even in colder months. Bring your own towels and water, as no amenities exist on-site. Clothing is optional, and since admission is free, donations to help maintain the area are appreciated. Keep in mind the strong sulfur odor that gives the springs their name.
