This canyon and forest-clad has several miles of frontage along the Pedernales River, so you'll find people fishing and swimming. The biggest attractions here tend to be mountain biking and climbing though, and of course hiking. There's an astronomical observatory here as well, taking advantage of dark skies to focus on the heavens. A day-use fee (currently $5 per person over 12 years old, cash only) applies at the entrance booth.

This trail loops around West Cave Preserve on a well-maintained dirt path. It is more exposed, so be sure to come prepared with hats and water, as it can get hot in this area.

West Cave Trail takes you through the preserve to West Cave, a peaceful grotto with stunning sights. As this is a private area, it's best to make a reservation to explore or book a guided tour to learn more about the preserve.

The spot offers a beautiful view of the river! However you might have to dismount your bike as the trail leading to the wall is only for pedestrians.

A glorious viewpoint for the Pedernales River, a tributary of the great Colorado River. This is classic Texas Hill Country scenery and a delightful landscape for a run. This is part of the Milton Reimers Ranch Park, which is especially popular with the Central Texas rock-climbing community and with mountain bikers.

Accessing the swimming area involves a moderate hike of approximately 1/4 mile or more, with some sections featuring steep rock stairs without handrails. Hence, it might be a good idea to bring a lock for your bike. Even if you decide not to swim, the area is still worth visiting due to its breathtaking beauty. If you do decide to swim, please be aware that the water levels in the river can change rapidly, transitioning from calm to turbulent within minutes. If you're in the river area and notice the water rising or becoming muddy, it's crucial to leave the area immediately.
