Disc Golf and Swim
Prince Solms Park is known for its strikingly blue, refreshing waters. Located on the Comal River this 19-acre park is the perfect spot for swimmers and tubers to enjoy for the day.
Prince Solms Park has the most exciting entrance to the Comal River for tubers. The City Tube Chute is a fast-moving water slide carved into the side of the city dam. The City Tube Chute is the largest slide of its kind and is an exciting destination for visitors.
Visitors may bring their own tubes, rent a tube at the chute’s entrance or rent a tube from one of several outside sources. If a visitor wants to go down the chute more than once they must pay a $5 admission fee. Once the fee is paid you are free to ride down the chute as many times as you can handle.
The riverfront at Prince Solms Park is a wonderful place to swim. The water here is flat and calm. For the best swimming experience, visitors should try 200 yards from the chute exit in either direction.
On land, Prince Solms Park has several exciting amenities including a disk golf course and a tennis court. The disk golf course is nine holes and is open to the public. There is no admission fee for the disk golf course.
From May 1st to Labor Day parking spaces in Prince Solms Park are $20. Residents may purchase a year-long player-parking pass for $20.
