The Grand Prismatic Spring is <\/span><b>found in the Midway Thermal Basin<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can hike to the spring\u2019s overlook on the Fairy Falls trail if you want an aerial view. At the Grand Prismatic Spring, hot water moves about 120 feet from a crack in the ground until it reaches the surface of the spring.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The spring\u2019s beauty is attributed to the<\/span><b> spectacular display of rainbow colors around its edges<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The colors form from the countless layers of heat-loving microorganisms found at the border of the mineral-rich spring water.
