About this swimming hole

A deep, spring-fed pool on Barton Creek with a rope swing and limestone walls that make it feel hidden from the city. It sits on the greenbelt about a mile from the nearest trailhead, far enough to filter the crowds. The water stays cool and clear long after the creek's shallow stretches warm up.
