Guadalupe River State Park
Just try not to tip over when you encounter one of the park’s four different sections of class twelve rapids! Okay, maybe rapid classes don’t actually go that high (it’s more like class 1-3). But with a little imagination, it will be as exhilarating as twelve!
Other river-centric activities include swimming and fishing for trout, bass, and sunfish. Fly fishing is especially à la mode here. Back on dry land, frolick through forests of elm, oak, and juniper. Spot white-tail deer, coyotes, and bobcats in the endless meadows of grasslands. Explore the park’s network of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails.
If you really want to get away from it all, sign up for a guided interpretive hike through the adjacent Honey Creek Natural State Area. It’s only available Saturdays at 9 am, so better plan ahead! If you’re visiting
