An excellent park to view fall foliage while walking the Maple and East Trails.
We visited the second week of November to hike and view fall foliage. We were lucky to have reserved day passes on a beautiful day, in the peak of colors. We were glad to have made our reservations early and in advance, because the park will sell out of day passes weeks to months in advance in the fall. We choose afternoon entrance, and if you choose it, please make sure you have enough time to do whatever activitiess you choose, especially hikes. We hiked the Maple Trail, then proceeded on to the East Trail, then East-West trail for a round trip circle of 4 miles. The hike took us 3 hours with minimal stop times. The most beautiful part of the trail is the Maple Trail if you are wanting to see fall colors. The East Trail and East-West were mostly rocky, uphill, steep and strenuous. Be sure you allow enough time to make it out before dark. You do not want to be navigating these steep incline/decline trails in the dark. We started at 2:30 pm and barely made it out before dark around 5:30. Also, be aware there is no cell service in this area. It's very remote, and you will likely not have any service, so prepare in advance. We enjoyed this hike very much, and the park is stunning in the fall.

Undeveloped state park that offers 36 miles of trails for horseback riding, hiking, backpacking, and primitive camping.
We enjoyed our horseback ride through the State Natural Area. It was once a ranch and now kept as a natural area for visitors. It has beautiful views with walking or biking trails.

This trail arrives at a scenic overlook of Sabinal Canyon.
Did with family for spring break. A little challenging in the middle with a climb. Overall beautiful and highly recommended.

The portion of this river inside Hill Country State Natural Area is great for a swim.
You can stroll along the river or swim in it and the water is so clear you can see the roots of the trees and fish swimming up and down. There are also some wood carvings in the trees welcoming you to the river. A lovely place to relax and unwind.

Beautiful cypress trees line the banks of this part of the river that runs through the park. Start at the far end of the park and peacefully float to the other end. For the dare devils ropes hang out over the deeper parts of the river and brave souls climb up to platforms to snare the ropes and swing out over the water. Shallow areas and natural gravel pits make for shallow water fun for small children and parents soak in the water and watch their young children play in the rocks.
Nature trail focused on conservation of native plants of Texas Hill Country.
