The views from the roadside park at the top are wonderful. Texas Highway 71 will take you to Bastrop. I connects Bastrop State Park to Buescher State Park. There is a stop between these parks that will give you great views of the area. Both of these parks are in the Lost Pines.
Different wildflowers bloom in all different seasons.
For more information check the Texas Wildflower Season at Lone Star Internet . Also check the newspapers or call the Wildflower Hotline, 832-4059 ext. 4, starting about the middle of March through May, to determine the best areas for wildflowers.
