Return to FM 281 West for 30.6 miles and turn left to enter the park. Go 0.5 mile to the lake shore.
Super easy trail. It’s mainly for joggers or walkers. Nothing challenging. But it was a nice ride around a lake. Tried to take a trail I thought may lead somewhere fun, but end up with a flat tire goat head stickers, really Texas size and strength. So got it fixed and decided to just stick with the main boring path. Ended up using 8 patches on 2 different bikes, from the MAIN trail! Don’t ride there unless you enjoy fixing flats!!! Horrible goat head problem, and they are TOUGH!!
Me and my dog 🐕 had a wonderful time at this lake. It was so peaceful and we rode the trails and came across a rattlesnake. It was awesome.
Hike and bike at Rita Blanca all the time! Lots of miles of trails. In the winter months, visitors can experience the annual North American Bird Migration! There are snow geese, Canada geese, bald eagles, lots of different ducks, and occasionally, you will find pelicans using the lake as a winter home or just for a quick rest.
You may also get to see White Tailed deer and Pronghorn.
