SWIMMING IN UTAH![]() Image via wanderookie.com These swimming holes are a bit off the beaten path, but offer a unique outdoor experience that you are sure to enjoy. 1. Fifth Water Hot Springs: These natural hot springs are located in Diamond Fork Canyon. To get to the springs, you'll have to hike about 2.5 miles one way. The water is crystal clear and the springs are fed by a beautiful waterfall. Click here for more details. 2. Mona Rope Swing: You can find the Mona rope swing at Mona ponds, about 30 minutes south of Provo. The pond is a bit off the beaten path, but the rope swings are worth the trip. There are huge trees to shade the pond and lots of more shallow areas for the kids. Click here for more details. 3. Indian Baths: There is a 2 foot deep pool located at the bottom of a little cascade along the Davis Creek Trail. You have to use some ropes and climb a bit, so it may not be a kid friendly destination. After the baths, you can keep hiking to visit another waterfall. Click here for more details. 4. Wall Lake: Wall lake is a cold alpine lake in the Uinta mountains. It's a small lake, so it feels like more of a swimming hole, but there are lots of rocks and cliffs to jump from. Click here for more details. 5. Meadow Hot Springs: Meadow is a small town four miles south of Fillmore along I-15. The remote Meadow Hot Springs are on private property, but the owner has continued to make them accessible to the public. Click here for more details.
