What to do at Enchanted Rock
Enchanted Rock in a Tweet - The name says it all. A giant granite dome in the Texas Hill Country formed from cooled magma. Enchanting! The summit is just the tip of the batholith, many miles of trails, unique geologic formations, and one of the darkest skies in Central Texas.
Must-Do Experiences
Nothing quite beats the view from the Summit.
The views from Turkey Peak and Buzzard’s Roost are also great without the crowds.
The Loop Trail is the wide, 5-mile crushed granite trail that “loops” the entire park.
Overnight Lodging
Campsites 19-25 are beautifully tucked-up in the rocks, 23 is a highlight.
Their primitive sites near Moss Lake are more frequently available if you’re down for a backpacking trip.
8 minutes - Frontier Outpost is a Hidden Gem
14 Minutes - Oxford Ranch Campground
22 Minutes - Tons of AirBnBs in Fredericksburg
