Hiking
Hiking is an enjoyable activity that is available in many of the Wildlife Management Areas of Texas. Since potable water is not available on many of the Wildlife Management Areas, it is a good idea to bring plenty of drinking water.
Hiking on the Guadalupe Delta WMA
Hiking on the Guadalupe River Unit is allowed along the two-mile part of River Road, the part of the county road at the entrance to the WMA and runs parallel to the river. This low-lying road is unpaved clay which can be difficult to walk on with the humid environment. Hiking is also allowed in the narrow strip between the road and the river. Thick undergrowth in most places on the strip makes walking difficult.
