You’ll have to hike or boat to find this spot. October and November are great times to visit the Texas state parks, as the temps much more accomodating!

Inks State Park is beautiful in many ways. If you kayak, you’ll love this place. But it’s also great for hiking around and exploring. Our kids loved scrambling over the granite outcroppings like little lizards. Views aren’t too bad either!

At Lake Texoma, Eisenhower State Park has some interesting places to explore. We enjoyed the Fossils found at Fossil Ridge.

My husband took the girls camping at CapRock Canyon near the Texas Panhandle. We have a Texas State Parks Pass, a great family investment. There were some surprising views here.
