A shuttle bus will take you from Mammoth Lakes to the monument where you can camp overnight or start on a hiking trip to the High Sierra backcountry.

The Hot Creek Geologic Site is a location of natural wonder with hot springs, unusual formations and craters. The site is open every day from sunup to sundown but swimming is not permitted because of the heat of the water and the presence of chemicals. There are walkways and boardwalks where you can walk in safety and although dogs are permitted they must be kept on a leash at all times.
