Everyone In Missouri Should Visit The Epic Blue Spring As Soon As Possible

Have you added Blue Spring in Missouri to your bucket list? If not, you’ll definitely want to make sure it earns a spot. Even if you’ve been to this breathtakingly aqua-blue Missouri spring before, you’ll want to visit again. After all, the spring’s natural beauty is striking in all seasons, and you’ll likely notice something new on each visit.

Although it may not be the deepest spring in Missouri - it ranks at eight - Blue Spring near Eminence's breathtaking blue water makes it a one-of-a-kind crowd pleaser.

Perhaps even better, it sits along a picturesque path that's filled with natural beauty. Clocking in at just around a half of a mile, the trail features colorful wildflowers in the warmer months.

Still, it's a beautiful trail to follow no matter the season. With much of the trail flanked by trees, it's particular pretty during the fall foliage.

Tallying 301 feet at its deepest point, Blue Spring is undoubtedly the highlight of the popular Missouri trail.

To preserve the spring's natural beauty, swimming is not allowed.

You'll follow the path along the Current River, so it can sometimes get wet and slippery. Some hikers recommend wearing water shoes.
