About

San Pedro Springs Park, established in 1729, is one of the oldest public parks in the United States. The spring-fed San Pedro Creek runs through the park, flanked by massive cypress and pecan trees that create exceptional shade. Walking paths, a spring-fed swimming pool (open summers), picnic areas, and outdoor fitness stations are all within 46 acres. Located just north of downtown, it's a neighborhood park that punches well above its size.

Shade Details

Massive cypress and pecan trees provide near-total shade throughout the park.

Conditions & Tips

Spring-fed pool open Memorial Day through Labor Day. Park is walkable from Deco District and SAC campus.

Spring may reduce to a trickle in severe drought.
