View from the source

The source is located in Pulaski County south of Waynesville . It rises at the foot of a rock that was covered with a large concrete wall for the construction of a road. The water flowing from the Roubidoux Spring flows into the Roubidoux Creek after a few meters. A footpath on a wooden walkway was built around the spring. The karst spring pours an average of 1650 l / s. The area near the source has very intense landforms in Karst with many caves and springs.
