Trail Overview

This short trail consists of a mix of hard-packed gravel and dirt, with a few sections of pavement in between, making a nice drive from the Lockhart area to the Luling area. You will pass a multitude of ranches and pastures that show off central Texas' beautiful scenery. You will also see cows, donkeys, horses, and goats on these farms. It is an easy drive with no water crossings or large obstacles. There are not any specific landmark or scenic areas to stop at along the way, but you are unlikely to come across many other vehicles, so stopping for a short period on the side of the road seems fine. There is a gas station near the halfway point if needed but there are not any areas for camping. As the roads border many private ranches, do not take other dirt roads you see off this trail as they are likely private driveways.

First third of the trail starting in Fredericksburg is paved, then moves to dirt/gravel for the rest, nothing crazy. Only three people seen across the trip, cattle along the fence lines.
