Lost Maples State Natural Area

Photo Courtesy TXDoT
At Vanderpool go North on FM 187 to Lost Maples State Natural Area. Besides the bigtooth maples there’s a forest of sycamores thriving on the waters of the Sabinal River.

Fall foliage makes this area a must for return visits when the color peaks in early November. Because of the crowd, it’s best to come during weekdays.

Park Information

210-966-3413.

The Sabinal flows parallel to the Frio and after a dip in our sixth river, one can now head south on FM 187 following the course of the river and detour to Utopia before continuing on FM 337.
