Old Benton / Hot Creek
Soak in the natural hot springs that have been frequented by Benton visitors for centuries, first by the native populations and then by the stagecoach travelers in the late 1800's. One of the oldest surviving towns in Mono County, Benton was once a thriving, silver mining town, with up to 5,000 inhabitants. Today it is a peaceful and tranquil oasis where time stands still. The Inn at Benton Hot Springs is the perfect spot to get away from it all. Come watch the stars, listen to nature, and soak in our soothing waters.
Hot Creek
Located east of Mammoth Lakes, Hot Creek meanders eastward from the mountains through an area where geological activity far beneath the earth's crust brings steam and hot water to the surface, mixing with the creek's cool waters. With it's bubbling pools and steaming fumaroles, Hot Creek Geological Site is one of the most fascinating locations in the area for viewing geothermal activity first hand. Hot Creek is closed to bathing at this time.
Hot Creek Fish Hatchery
Upstream the Hot Creek Fish Hatchery - open to visitors year round - takes advantage of the creek's ideal water temperature to rear 20 million trout eggs a year for California fisheries. You don't have to go far for great fishing; Hot Creek is one of the most prized catch-and-release fly fishing streams in California.
