Wimberley Parks & Rec to hold polar bear plunge, 5k at Blue Hole

Ring in the New Year with a splash. Wimberley Parks and Recreation invites the community to kick off 2025 with its annual Polar Bear Plunge & 5K on January 4, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Blue Hole Regional Park.

The event combines fun, fitness, and a frosty challenge. The 5K route starts in Blue Hole, winds through the scenic streets of Wimberley, and concludes with an exhilarating plunge into the ice-cold waters of Cypress Creek. Designed for experienced runners or for those looking for a fun way to celebrate, the Polar Bear Plunge and 5K is a great way to start the year.
