mountain spring
Alpine water source
A mountain spring is a natural source where water emerges from the ground in mountainous terrain, typically fed by snowmelt or underground aquifers filtering through rock.
The term evokes purity and freshness: mountain spring water appears on countless bottle labels, whether the water actually comes from one or not.
We filled our canteens at a mountain spring.
