Canyon Lake
Gorge
10 minutes
|
|
The Canyon Lake Gorge is a
beautiful and natural insight into the geology and hydrologic dynamics
of Glen Rose limestone in Comal County near Canyon Lake. The Gorge was
created, or "cut" when floodwaters escaped over the Spillway at Canyon
Lake during the Flood Event of 2002.
The Gorge Preservation
Society (GPS) is a local citizen's group who have partnered with the
Guadalupe-Blanco River Authority and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
This organization is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is
dedicated to developing long-term plans for the Gorge. The National
Association of Recreation Resource Planners (NARRP) has awarded its 2008
"Excellence in Planning Award". See the
GPS Membership
link for more details.

Canyon Lake
Trails
10 minutes
|
|
Canyon Dam Crest
Trail
Located along the crest road
of the dam, this trail provides a popular 1 mile leisurely stroll across
the top of Canyon Dam, which offers a beautiful view of the lake and
river valley. Since the trail is very flat and scenic, it is especially
popular for folks needing to walk for medical rehab or those just
beginning an exercise program. The south trailhead parking area is in
Overlook Park which opens daily at 7am and closes at sunset. The trail
can also be accessed on the north end of the dam via North Park Road.
Guadalupe North
Trail
Fishing is great in the
discharge area of Canyon Dam especially during trout stocking season
(Nov-Feb). However, the steep terrain of this area has historically
limited its access to people with walking disabilities. Now this area
is available for all to enjoy. The Guadalupe North River Trail is a
short, paved, fully ADA-accessible trail which leads from a north
parking area below the base of the dam to a fishing platform on the
river. Canyon Dam is located on Dam Access Road between FM 306 and FM
2673 near Sattler, Texas.
Guadalupe South
Trail
The trailhead is located at
the base of Canyon Dam at the far end of the southernmost parking area.
It is a short 1/4 mile scenic walk along the bald cypress-lined banks of
the Guadalupe River. This riparian trail along with the North River
Trail, was built by volunteers during Public Lands Appreciation Day in
1995. We plan to continue to develop and lengthen the trail with help
from the Texas Master Naturalist. If you or your group is interested
in helping with trail building or trail maintenance, please contact the
Texas Master Naturalist.
Old Hancock Trail
The
Old Hancock Trail is a
3.5 mile trail along the north shoreline of Canyon Lake. The trail runs
from the trailhead along the north shoreline to Canyon Park. The
trailhead is located at the lakeshore end of Old Hancock Road just off
FM 306 on the north side of the lake. Old Hancock Trail is also an
equestrian trail, so please be respectful to riders on horseback.
7:00am - sunset.
