The main attraction of Soda Springs is the Geyser. It is not entirely a natural phenomenon, though. It was unexpectedly released during well drilling for a swimming pool thermal water source in 1937. Cold water powered by pressurized carbon dioxide was shooting 100 feet into the air. It has been capped and a timer releases it for 8 minutes once every hour. There is a visitor center at the site.
Hooper spring is a source of potable carbonated water. You can take a drink of the carbonated water. The water has a relatively strong irony flavour and is an acquired taste.
An indoor simulated wagon train experience recreates the 1850s Oregon Trail with live actors, a gun shop and mercantile post. Ride in a covered wagon and circle the wagon train for the evening at the Clover Creek Encampment.
