There are over 22 miles of trails that range from easy to difficult with dramatic inclines. The trails cross river bottoms, steep ridges, and wooded areas. Check out the State Park's interactive trail map o learn more about the trails.
South Llano River State Park is home to one of the largest turkey roosts in Central Texas. Turkeys roost from Oct. 1 through March 31.
When we stay here our intent is to enjoy the spacious, play some games, and cook some delicious meals. We've ridden a couple of the trails and spent a lot of time in the river. We've also played a round of golf on the 9 holes at Junction Golf Club.

Texas Outside uses a tough rating scale and it’s difficult for a campground to get a “10”. Each park is rated on:
Texas Outside has been alive & well since 1996 - that's ancient by today's internet standards! Texas Outside was originally developed by Lone Star Internet which is an Austin based web development company with an excellent reputation & client base. In March of 2006, we purchased Texas Outside & made a commitment to add new, exciting, & informative content on Texas outdoor activities & fun things to see & do.
