Description
With four miles of river frontage, the Guadalupe River takes center stage at the park. We are open daily, with a variety of activities for all interests, ages, and abilities. Please check the calendar at the website below for the wonderful variety of offerings!
On the river, you can swim, fish, tube, and canoe. While on land, you can camp, hike, ride mountain bikes or horses, picnic, geocache, and bird watch. We loan fishing gear and kid’s explorer packs (free!) for use in the park. Camp at one of 85 water and electric campsites or nine walk-in tent sites. Kayak or canoe the Guadalupe River. When the water levels are good there are several options for paddling trips.
Explore 13 miles of hike and bike trails. (Sometimes, we may close trails to protect sensitive areas or for bad weather. Please observe closure signs. Call or check our Facebook page or Twitter feed for updates.)
Step away from the river to find the more peaceful areas. For a more primitive experience, our remote Bauer Unit Day-use area has hiking and biking trails with ratings from moderate to challenging. Experience native prairie grasses and wildlife. River access is a 2- to 3-mile hike downhill. The Bauer Unit has no restrooms or potable water and fires are not permitted. Pack out your trash and Leave No Trace!
Learn more about the park’s natural features at the Discovery Center. Take a closer look at nature using magnifying glasses, microscopes, and binoculars. Explore hands-on discovery boxes and exhibits. Ask about borrowing an explorer pack!
