Snake Hot Springs is a hot spring catalogued in Wyoming by the U.S. Geological Survey's Geographic Names Information System — about 107 miles from Bozeman, MT, inside Yellowstone National Park.

Safety & access

Read before visiting
Verify access before driving in. The U.S. Geological Survey catalogs the geographic feature, not its access status. Hot springs in our database span the full range from developed public soaking pools to private resorts to wild thermal water on federal/state land. Some require entry fees; some are on private property; some are in National Park Service units where soaking is prohibited.

This feature is inside Yellowstone National Park and is federally protected. Stay on designated boardwalks and trails — leaving them damages fragile thermal-features and is illegal. Soaking is prohibited in most NPS thermal areas.

Before you go: check current conditions and access rules with the relevant land manager — National Park Service unit, U.S. Forest Service ranger district, Bureau of Land Management field office, state-park department, or the property owner if it's private. Wild thermal water can be unsafe to enter without a thermometer; surface temperatures can vary dramatically from the deeper pool. When in doubt, don't soak.
