Guadalupe River State Park
Guadalupe
River State Park is located along the boundary of Comal and Kendall Counties.
It was acquired by deed from private owners in 1974 and was opened to
the public in 1983. The park is bisected by the clear-flowing waters of
the Guadalupe River. The park is comprised of a 1938.7-acre segment of
the Texas Hill Country noted for its ruggedness and scenic beauty.
The park has 4 miles of river frontage and
is located in the middle of a 9-mile stretch of the Guadalupe River. Park
visitors may enjoy a variety of outdoor activities including canoeing,
fishing, swimming, tubing, picnicking, hiking, and camping. The park recently
opened a 5.3 miles equestrian trail that is also open to mountain biking.
Opportunities also exist for less vigorous but more serene pursuits, such
as bird watching and nature study.
