Guadalupe River State Park

Guadalupe River State Park, run by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, has two bird blinds with very different access.

Woodland blind: some access

The park lists a short crushed granite path to the Woodland blind. Accessible parking and restrooms are in the day-use area.

Savannah blind: hard access

The Savannah blind has no crushed granite path. You reach it from the Persimmon Path or the Painted Bunting Trail. The park describes the Persimmon Path as a short, rocky trail.

Good to know

• The park has an all-terrain wheelchair visitors can use. Contact the park ahead of time to ask about it.
• The park says its trails and campsites aren't accessible overall, and the walk down to the river is steep.
• Entry: $7 a day for adults; kids 12 and under get in free. The park is open daily, and the gate is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Fees and hours can change, so check the park's page before you go.
• The park often fills up, so reserving a day pass ahead of time is a good idea.

Conditions change. Paths close, ramps get fixed, feeders come and go. Call the park before you go and ask about the features you need.
