Located within Landa Park, Comal Springs is the largest spring system in Texas, forming the headwaters of the Comal River through a series of natural artesian outflows.
The springs emerge from the Edwards Aquifer along the Balcones Fault, creating a network of clear pools and streams shaded by ancient oak trees. Visitors can observe the water bubbling up from the limestone fissures, feeding the short but significant Comal River. The area around the springs features walking paths and historic markers detailing the ecological and historical importance of this natural water source.
The springs are located within Landa Park in New Braunfels, serving as the headwaters for the Comal River.
Viewing the springs is free, as they are situated within the public grounds of Landa Park.
Swimming is not permitted directly in the spring orifices to protect the fragile ecosystem, but the water flows into the Comal River where recreation is allowed.
