Description: Birds, Geology, and LUNCH: a perfect Sunday morning in December!
Come explore the birding trails at Canyon Lake Dam and Guadalupe River Trail (eBird HOTE 073), hike Canyon Lake Gorge with a guide, and stay for lunch. We are limiting the outing to 15 people.
Birding from 8:00 to 10:30 or so will be led by local birders who know the area and the local birds. We will provide details about where to meet once everyone has signed up. Bring water and a hiking stick if you have one.
Canyon Lake Gorge was created by the Guadalupe River flood in 2002. Our guided tour starts at 11:30 AM and will take 90 minutes. For more information about the Canyon Lake Gorge, visit this website. Watch a short video about Canyon Lake Gorge HERE.
After the tour, the group will have lunch at Wildflour Artisan Bakery & Grill just down the road from Canyon Lake Gorge. Staying for lunch is optional; everyone will pay their own check. Check out the menu HERE.
