Be aware Hells gate spa and the thermal wonderland are 30minute drive away from each other. Great experience but we missed the geyser because of the spa booking. Awesome places to visit

Great experience slathering the mud on. Changing facilities could be larger as was crowded and this was later in the day too. But all in all a unique experience

We loved the facilities at Hell's Gate Mud baths. The staff was friendly and helpful answering all our questions. The variety of pools including mud, sulphur, warm and cool were fun as well as invigorating. The facility was excellent including clean changing areas, showers, gift shop and cafe. We enjoyed the entire Hell's Gate experience and found nice gifts to take home to our friends.

The setting is good. The mud is great. Just staff in the mud area are all in a long face. The receptionists are Okie.
