PARK UPDATE Inks Lake state park is open and fully operational. The latest reports indicate that 321 acres were impacted by the wildfire overnight. Due to the hard work and dedication of our local fire departments the blaze is now more than 50% contained, and the fire never reached the state park property. Helicopters are still picking up water from the lake to drop on the remaining blaze, and fire containment efforts will continue throughout the day. This incident is a good reminder of the how

With several endemic and endangered species. 😲 Inks Lake State Park is on the edges of two different ecological regions, the northeastern corner of the Llano Uplift of the Edwards Plateau, and the southern part of the limestone plains of the Cross Timbers, so we get quite a variety of plants.

The entire staff here at Inks Lake has taken the next step to being good stewards and conservationists for Texas State Parks. As a group, we all went through the Texas State Parks Junior Ranger Activity Journal, studied hard, answered questions, did homework, and passed the test (not necessarily in that order, but we tried 😊) The idea was to get a better understanding of what we ask of our Junior Rangers who take the pledge, and make sure we ourselves understood the lessons and knowledge that w

Remember, this is their home too! All native wildlife has a place at Inks Lake State Park.

Day # 8 of #InksLakeFavoriteThings The first thing to hit you in the mornings at Inks lake State Park... Sunrises! The drive on Park Road 4 heading to Inks Lake is a gorgeous way to start your day. 🌅 Once you’re in the park, one of the best places to catch the sunrise is at Paddleboat Cove, behind the Park Store, or on the North Fishing Pier. Sitting on the back porch, or standing on the dock, you get an awesome view of the morning sun reflecting on the water. This time of year, we often have t

Day #9 of #InksLakeFavoriteThings Geese! They seem to walk (or march!) with such purpose 😁 Many feel that the Canada Geese (Branta canadensis) that have made Inks Lake home are a nuisance, and sometimes they are. The big, black-necked Canada Goose, with its signature white chinstrap mark, can cause traffic jams, make a lot of noise, and leave a mess behind, but they are fun to watch! And the way they fly over the water and land with a splash and honk is just so wildlife-y. And the goslings are

Take a short virtual hike on the Pecan Flats Trail! This is what is blooming right now (hiked on Monday 5/29/23) This short video shows what the trail is like if you take the right fork up to the Arch Rock…. and then hoof it back down quickly to miss the storm that’s coming (you’ll see the clouds in the video 😂) (It took me 2 hours to get to the Arch Rock… and 20 minutes to get back to the Trailhead 🤣) Take your digital Wildflower Bingo cards with you… I saw at least 49 different flower specie

Enjoy a virtual hike of our Pecan Flats Trail! This hike was taken on December 15, 2023 and shows the level of difficulty you can expect. We highly recommend watching the longer Facebook video to get more insight on what to expect on the trail 😁 It also shows how you can observe nature and the beauty around you, while getting outside in the fresh air. You don’t have to hike just to get your steps in. 😊 ☁️ Look at the clouds 🔵 Be amazed at the color of the sky 🐜 Help a bug on its way 🌿 Obser

The Valley Spring Creek Trail still has a few wildflowers (very few) because of the late warm weather, but it is still a nice hike. At an easy pace, it can take less than an hour. During spring it can take over 3 because of all the photo ops. 😅 #dailyhike #valleyspringcreek #fallhike #inkslakesp #inkslakep #texasstateparks #betteroutside #virtualhike | Inks Lake State Park - Texas Parks and Wildlife

Pro Tip! 🌅 Close up shop 🌅 Drive the speed limit down to the South Pier about 10 minutes before sunset. 🌅 Sit on the rocks and wait 🌅 The best colors are about 15-20 minutes after sun goes down. Last night’s sunset at the South Fishing Pier was spectacular. 😍 The South Pier is always a good place to catch the sunset, but when there are clouds in winter…. priceless. ☺️ #zenmoment #sunsetsofinstagram #lakesunset #inkslakestatepark #inkslakesp #lovemytpwdjob #texasstateparks #betteroutside #wa

🎶 Splish, splash, I was taking a bath! 🎶 These armored cuties are busy taking advantage of a cooling mud bath in an effort to beat the heat. Mud isn't just for exfoliation! 🤣 This is also a somewhat rare sighting of all 4 siblings! Did you know that our native nine-banded armadillos (Dasypus novemcinctus) are the only mammals that ALWAYS give birth to identical quadruplets?! Pretty amazing, huh? Stay cool out there everyone! If you end up having to take your own mud bath, we won't judge. 😁 #

This less-than-6-minutes video is a timeline of the how the rains these past several days have affected Inks Lake State Park. It’s a reminder how quickly things can escalate, and how unexpected it can be. We have been very lucky. All staff are safe, no homes damaged or lost. But we all know someone who is affected by the flooding. The Texas Hill Country is a big “small town”. Everybody seems to know someone in common, or are related to someone on a distant branch of the tree. But Texans know, th
