Visit Mineral Wells

With a history of “healing” waters dating back to the early 1900s, Mineral Wells is a city located in a valley tucked among the hills of Palo Pinto County, about an hour’s drive west of Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas.   Between the late 1800s and the mid-1900s, Mineral Wells was referred to as the “America’s Great Health Resort” and “Where America Drinks Its Way To Health.” It was a health tourism hot-spot where celebrities went to partake in the waters and stay in luxury hotels. Today the place where deep Texas history meets modern vision and restoration is making a come-back. From mineral baths to newly cut mountain bike trails, and from locally-owned spas to farmer’s markets and shopping collectives, a new Mineral Wells is emerging as a destination true to its roots.
