About Enchanted Rock State Natural Area

A pink granite dome rising 425 feet dominates this natural area, formed as a batholith that pushed up from below the surface over time. The reserve spans 5,388 acres across Gillespie and Llano counties and has been under the care of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department since it opened to visitors in 1984. The rock formation itself serves as the central draw for anyone exploring the grounds.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
