Sculpture Falls Details
A short hike along the Barton Creek Greenbelt takes you straight to this swimming hole. Relatively less crowded than the neighboring Twin Falls swimming hole, this natural spring is a laid-back but fun place to relax in nature. You'll find people swimming, rope swinging, and even cliff jumping into the water (which is a refreshingly pleasant 70-degrees throughout the year). The spring has several different pools where you can hang out and plenty of open space around the banks to lay out a blanket or have a picnic. Along the edges of the pool are small waterfalls that keep the water flowing at all times.
