Blue Springs State Park
Blue Springs State Park is a public recreation area located 7 mi (11 km) east of Clio in Blue Springs, Barbour County, Alabama. The 103-acre (42 ha) state park features a clear blue, natural underground spring that pumps 3,600 US gal (14,000 L) of water per minute into two concrete-ringed swimming pools. The park's recreational area was expanded in 2013 when the Forever Wild Land Trust purchased 100 acres (40 ha) adjoining acres for the purpose of providing hiking trails.
