History of The Blue Hole in Wimberley, TX

The cool waters of the “Blue Hole” have attracted swimmers for decades in the Texas Hill Country. Threatened by development, the swimming hole and surrounding 126 acres were purchased in 2005 by the City of Wimberley to protect the beloved icon, which had nearly been “loved to death” by overuse, and to create a sustainable regional park.
