Pedernales Falls State Park Trails – Bike Trails

Last weekend we decided to test the bikes on another of the Central Texas Hill Country trails — the Pedernales Falls State Park trails and more specifically the Wolf Mountain Trail

The park is located West of Austin on the way to Johnson City in the Hill Country. If you are traveling from Austin, take 71 West towards Lakeway but do not turn on 620 but stay on 71 for another set of lights and on those next set of lights you will encounter Hamilton Pool road on your left — take Hamilton Pool road to Ranch Road 12 where you will turn left on 12 and then look for FM 3232 which you will turn right on and head North for 6 miles.

The park is accessible by paved road — at the range station you will have the option to pay $5 per person or what I consider as a better deal – buy an annual state park pass for $70 which is good for the whole car. 

At the ranger station you will find also maps. 

We decided to do one of the biking trails – the 7.5mile Wolf Mountain Trail — the map of our ride is visible in the gallery here:

Also you may want to check out the video from the State park — here it is:

There are plenty of parking areas in the park — nothing to worry on that,  Just make sure you ask in the park ranger station where is the best place to park on that day for a given trail you want to ride on. 

Enjoy your biking and make sure you have plenty of water with you!
