Colorado Bend State Park Trails and Tours

Description:

• Located within the beautiful 5328.3 acre Colorado Bend State Park are 11.7 miles of hiking trails and 8 miles of mountain bike trails. These exciting trails will allow users to experience the flora and fauna of the park. Birders can enjoy viewing some of 155 species of birds found in the park, including specialties such as golden-cheeked warblers, black-capped vireos, and bald eagles. Gorman Falls is located on the western bank of the Colorado River, approximately 10 miles above Lake Buchanan and includes a portion of Gorman Creek which feeds Gorman Falls. Gorman Falls is an impressive, 60-foot-high waterfall. The falls' travertine formations and associated lush vegetation are very scenic. Small travertine dams have formed quiet pools of clear water which support a variety of aquatic communities.
