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.[2] 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.[3]
