Summary
Jacob’s Well in Wimberley, Texas, remains closed for swimming this summer—marking the fourth straight year—as the ongoing drought has left the iconic spring nearly dry. Though the park stays open for hiking and sightseeing, the well’s water levels, briefly boosted by a downstream dam, have plummeted again. Officials suspended swimming in 2022 after the Trinity Aquifer’s levels dropped sharply; no reopening is planned yet, as conservation efforts continue and natural recovery remains the priority.
