Guadalupe River SP and LBJ both have sub-parks that you can visit as well. At Guadalupe River SP you have to visit on a Saturday to visit Honey Creek State Natural Area, but here you’ll be able to enjoy 2,000 acres of natural habitat.
If you want to step back in time then check out the Sauer-Beckmann Living History Farm. Just a short hike from the main visitors center you’ll be transposed to what life was like for German immigrants who settled this land.
