San Pedro Springs Park is the oldest park in Texas, and the second oldest one in the country! The natural springs have attracted people to the area for over 12,000 years. Once home to a science museum and a zoo, the natural springs still attracts people today!
Know Before You Go
Parking is FREE.
Admission is FREE.
Swimming Pool
The main attraction to this incredible park is the huge, spring-fed swimming pool! When we visited it wasn’t open yet for the season, but San Antonio Parks and Recreation allowed me to use this picture. The pool is free to the public, and there is a bath house, too.
The huge pool is also FREE, making it a must to visit during the summer!
Gazebo
The Gazebo overlooks the botanical gardens, and can be rented for special events!
The San Pedro Library sits on San Pedro Avenue, across from the San Antonio College.
