More about this place

Firehole Lake Drive is a 3-mile one-way scenic drive that takes you past a series of geysers, hot springs, and other geothermal features. It winds through a forested area and offers stunning views of colorful hot springs, geysers, steam vents, and bubbling mud pots.

We recommend stopping at White Dome Geyser, then Great Fountain Geyser, and Firehole Lake.
