Overlook Park — Attraction in Wimberley

This park is absolutely amazing on many levels. Well maintained and gorgeous trees on the east side is the view of the lake that is better than the Oasis on Lake Travis. Always free always free and a perfect spot for families or couples. The children love it and you can see the entire panorama of Canyon Lake. Everyone is always happy there and there is a special feeling about the place of freedom. It truly makes it a joy to be an American and to have such special peaceful and accessible spots for the ones you love. Often views of sailboats and skiers in front of the backdrop of a glorious Hill country sunset with beautiful Cascades of Guadalupe hills rolling into the lake.

The park is well maintained and safe. Parking is sometimes a walk because it is such a popular location for everyone from college students to children and senior citizens walking along the dam for exercise. The spot is truly a joy that should be embraced by everyone in Central Texas.

To the east you have a view of the gorgeous Canyon valley and the activity below on the river. Oftentimes you will see fly fisherman in the river which is remarkable for the ambiance of Central Texas and quite a pleasant surprise.

They might have a major law suit heading there way. I love the park and the staff, but they should not ignore this issue.The overlook park is a great place! But it has a major problem and someone is going to get injured, attacked or drowned there. Their facebook page lists it as having an “unofficial beach”. They think that gets them off the hook for what happens there. But in reality, they are inviting people to enjoy their so called beach (unofficial) just means unsupervised and unsafe. The area along the water is dangerous. From tripping hazards to huge falling rocks and cliffs. Because it is advertised as (unofficial), it draws in people that don’t wish to...
