This is a wonderful place full of day hikes, overnight car camping and Primitive camping. Wonderful views of the hill country are seen from the top of the big dome as well as the two smaller domes. Strenuous routes strait up and more relaxing hikes to the top can be found, but sometimes the way down can be disarming. Warning: there are snakes and cactus here! That being said, be cautious, wear long pants if you can stand to when you are out hiking and pack enough water and snacks with you. Wear lots of sun protection as there is not much shade on the domes and the rock really heats up! It is a great place to boulder, rock climb, hike, look for wildlife and commune with nature. It's called enchanted rock for a reason!

Nice park in Central Texas. Good for hiking, bouldering, rock climbing. Since its a huge granite rock, you can make your own trail. Be sure to check out Fredericksburg. Cool little hill country town with some nice shops, restaurants, and BB's.

Enchanted Rock is a great daytrip out of Austin. It's about a 2hr drive west of Austin between Llano and Fredericksburg. There are several hiking trails and camping sites, but get here early as there is limited parking. Great view from the top!

Nice little German town; best time to visit the area - the first 2 weeks of April when the bluebonnets are up.
