Be an Austin Hipster at Barton Springs

Austin is known for its laid-back atmosphere and for being a spot of brilliant blue in a sea of vermillion. Get into the vibes at Austin's crown jewel, Barton Springs Pool, an ancient groundwater spring that pumps icy water into the half-natural, half-handmade pool all year long. Relax with the hippies, chill in the ice cold waters, and people watch until your eyes bleed.

Barton Springs is a threatened resource, so hit it while it's still around! I'll provide you with information about the endangered blind salamanders that live in the rocks below and conservation efforts. Entry to the park, hula hoops, bongos, educational materials, beach blanket, water bottles, sunscreen, temporary tattoos, and fake wayfarers included. Bring your own swimsuit and we're ready to go!
