Before heading out, take a virtual tour with the Interactive Trails Map. This is a great way to plan your trip and not waste time when arriving at the park. Bird watchers are often dazzled when exploring here. Keep a close eye out for the fleeting and endangered golden-cheeked warbler. Also watch for dinosaur footprints while in the Natural Area. Some 110-million-year-old tracks were left here by Acrocanthosaurus and Sauroposeidon dinosaurs. These are the only tracks within close proximity to any Alamo Ranch home. Those wishing to enjoy a night away and camp here can do so on Fridays, Saturdays, and holidays. Read more about Government Canyon State Natural Area and plan your visit.
