Closed at the moment, choose to not ignore the two signs and walked back. Still worth a visit to see the river 'boiling'.

An amazing experience, like no other! Bison and elk on the trail on the short hike in. The steaming hot water is unbelievably relaxing.

This is one of the few places in Yellowstone that you can get into a river without freezing! A thermal feature puts out a river of hot water that mixes with the cold river water to form a small area where one can lounge. The temperature differential changes depending on the flow rate of the river and people upstream of you. There are a few pond like areas that people have made work river rock that helps.

Holy Hannah!! Absolutely incredible. So, the river is actually cold. However, there are areas where the hot water flows into the river and this is the big draw to tourists (and locals). Its rough to find parking but if you can, you definitely should make the attempt to sit in these hot spots. Its about a 1/2-1 mile walk on a clear path. You can bring what you can carry, no alcohol, we brought a life jacket for the youngest of us, and be ready for wildlife on the trails.

Yes, currently closed. Hugh and dangerous river conditions right now. https://www.nps.gov/yell/planyourvisit/conditions.htm
Hopefully it's still available for use, but not for long I guess. If you travel Yellowstone, it's a top priority to visit.
The official opening is dictated by naps. They determine when river flow is low enough to avoid swift water rescues.weather and snowpack all combine to affect flows so it's a cap shoot. If it is still closed and you get caught you can be fined.
No idea, it's just closed. Doesn't give a reason on the sign.
Closed. There is a park ranger stationed there to keep everyone out of the area.
I just came back a few days ago and it was closed due to dangerous water conditions
If it can fit into roadside parking. Fyi, the area is closed through this year 2020.
It was closed on Sunday 06/21/20
Everyday day time only
Yes
It opens year round
Yes it is open.
You don't reserve or pay extra for the Boiling River. However, parking will be a challenge. Be prepared to wait for a good spot or walk an extra distance from the road. Wear good shoes, and or water shoes.
outhouses in the parking lot ... half-mile hike from there to the swimming hole ... nearest flush toilets are in Mammoth Hot Springs.
