Located a few dams down from the Upper Comal River, the Lower Comal has a faster current and slightly deeper depths along the river bends. Put in location is underneath the Garden St. bridge, and the river will bend twice before getting out at the last public exit (before the Comal hits the Guadalupe River).

The Comal River, one of the shortest rivers in the US, is spring fed from the Edwards Aquifer and flows 2.5 miles through the City of New Braunfels, eventually merging with the Guadalupe River. Diving on the Comal River begins just down river from the Wurstfest Grounds and continues to just before the Tube Chute.
