- Do bring a bathing suit and get in the waters.
- Do make reservations at the bathhouses and for dinner in Hot Springs — it's a hopping tourist destination.
- Do wear sneakers and get out into the nature of the place.
Relax, release, and replenish. The natural healing properties of the thermal waters in Hot Springs, both in the ancient springs and the bathhouses, will leave a lasting impression. The waters are said to have natural healing properties, so give yourself plenty of time to soak them up. And give yourself time to enjoy nature — Hot Springs National Park was the first designated national park in America. The best part of this trip is that it is just a quick car trip from Dallas to get there for an overnight stay, leaving plenty of time to explore the city and its fascinating history.
