Description
The outpouring is enormous, but the bld is self-contained. You can view the giganatic flows of these springs from public access. It runs down the hill, tunnels under the highway, and passes through a park with swimming areas for kids and adults.
Nearest Address

The water source is located close to downtown - and the new HEB Store - on US 90 heading to the Air Base. It has a large outpouring- probably thousands of gallons every minute-being released from the natural spring. But the city chlorinates it. However, perhaps there is a way for the water to be purified before it becomes contaminated.
Directions from the Nearest Address

Continue south on US 90 through Del Rio to the border. After passing through town, turn right at the New HEB Supermarket to go towards Brackettville. The park is about a mile away. Just across the highway from the park is the entrance to the spring. This is up on a steep hillside. One can park there and then get out to view it.
