Ainsworth is a popular destination year round, so it's important to make your reservation ahead of time. Prices are fair for such a gorgeous setting and of course the mineral pools.

The change rooms were small, but everyone moves rather quickly. Showers were a bit of a wait as well, but not too bad.

The cave system is accessed through that smaller pool, with the cave entrance on the right and the cave exit there on the left. The cave does go in and around quite a ways

There is an obvious water colour difference between the large hot pool and the small cave pool. The cave pool has a very murky mineral look to it.

Swimming in the warmer cave pool was more enjoyable for us in the -2 temperatures. The larger pool is a few degrees cooler than the cave pool.

The water will drip from the ceiling onto you while in the Ainsworth cave. But that makes for some pretty cool mineral formations inside.
