THE HISTORY OF YAMPAH
THE HOT SPRINGS VAPOR CAVES
Be a part of history as you enjoy a rare and unique experience at Yampah Hot Springs Vapor Caves in Glenwood Springs, Colorado. Known for being the only “natural” vapor cave in North America, with an aggregated flow of 6,000 gallons of mineral water a minute at a temperature of 125 degrees F, the sulpo-saline-alkaline medicinal waters are world-renowned for their therapeutic value. The water runs through each room of the cave creating steam at a temperature of 110 to 113 degrees. Since 1893, the caves have been formally used for relaxation and for its healing properties.
The Ute Indians who originally inhabited this region visited the caves for centuries and regarded them as a sacred place for ceremony, healing, and rejuvenation. The Ute were the first proponents of the hot water vapor and constructed the first sweat cave. The word “Yampah,” an indigenous word, means “Big Medicine.” The current Yampah Spa building opened to the public in 1893 and has been in continuous operation ever since. It has seen many changes over the years but the sacred tradition of relaxation and wellness stand as the cornerstone of the Yampah experience.
Over the centuries, both the indigenous and early settlers have enjoyed and appreciated the significance of this historical site coming for healing and relaxation. Today visitors view Yampah Caves as a travel destination, coming from around the globe to experience the medicinal properties of the natural vapor of the caves.
