What's included in Self Guided Audio Walking Tour of Old Faithful Geyser Basin
(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Beehive Geyser
The unassuming Beehive geyser resembles a large beehive until it unleashes boiling water, shooting it 100 feet into the air. It erupts for 5 minutes every 10 to 20 hours, often signaled by its companion, the "Beehive’s Indicator," which releases a stream of water shortly before.
Heart Spring, dubbed for its heart-shaped appearance by Park Geologist George Marler, boasts icy-blue waters averaging 184 degrees Fahrenheit. The vibrant yellow-orange hues surrounding the pool are colonies of microorganisms, not mineral deposits.
Grand Geyser
Grand Geyser, the most powerful predictable geyser globally, showcases awe-inspiring eruptions reaching up to 200 feet high. Unlike cone geysers, Grand is a fountain-type, characterised by a pool rather than a cone structure.
