Campsite: The Pines Campground
Awesome campground first come first serve, reasonable prices n far enough off the highway ya don’t here too much. Waters off for the season looks like, vault restrooms still open. Would highly recommend.
Campsite: Pedernales Falls State Park
This was an awesome state park with so many hiking trails. Trammells crossing was great you have to cross the river early on in the trail, you will 100% get wet crossing here, so have a plan, I removed my shoes before crossing and put them back on other people had large plastic bags. The trail was pretty legit I’d recommend the extra spur on the south side, one a the best parts of the trail and the river overlook on the north is one a the best views in the park.
The wolf mountain loop was nice with solid views all around, it connects with a number of other trails, I ended up taking on the Jones spring trail, and hiked back to the parking lot using part of the juniper ridge trail which was really awesome, one of my favorites.
The falls area was fun to explore I walked the west falls area and explored the rocks and lower falls areas.
It was winter time so I didn’t do much swimming but it looked like a great park for it. It rained a lot and the trails can get slick so bring good hiking shoes.
The electric camping area I stayed at was great the spots area reasonably spaced out, bathrooms with showers are available.
This was a great park and experience highly recommend.
Campsite: Lost Maples State Natural Area
I really enjoyed hiking here in this area. I hiked the East loop and all the overlooks on that side. It was pretty amazing. The park does have a day use area and some hike in campsites but little else beyond the trails. The main trail loops are fairly long moderate hikes there’s a steep part where you hike up to the top of the hills and then it flattens out at the top. I hope to come back and hike the west side eventually, was a spectacular hike on the east side would recommend.
Campsite: Rio Frio — Garner State Park
This was a great state park, was pretty slow mid week in the winter. Some great trails to hike here like Mt Baldy and Crystal cave, mostly dog friendly as well. You can explore a lot of the park in just one day, a lot of the trails are on the shorter side and the day use area is beautiful would like to swim there when it’s warmer. There were a lot of options for camping in the park as well.
