Pedernales Falls State Park

This past weekend, I went and checked out Pedernales Falls State Park. It’s located about an hour outside of Austin here in Texas. It’s made up of more than 5,000 acres of land and has a bunch hiking trails and camping areas.

Although the waterfalls weren’t what I was expecting, they were still cool to look at. It was also nice to get outside and do some hiking, especially in November. The leaves are starting to change colors so the scenery is pretty amazing.

We’ve been getting a lot of rain lately so the water was flowing pretty rapidly. One of the hikes was actually closed since there was no way of crossing the water.

Here’s a few more pictures from the park:

    Very nice. I visited there this summer, quick a nice park. There was not much water at all – you could cross the water easily. I have posted my photos from that trip yet but here are some of my other photos: http://curiouscat.com/travels/usa.cfm

    I love this park. Was there last winter but hoping to visit again this summer for a swim. Some photos of Pedernales Falls & Cypress Pool during winter last year: http://www.mywisewife.com/texas-johnson-city-pedernales-falls-state-park.html
