Bastrop State Park – Cool Things To Do In Austin
You’ll find it all at Bastrop State Park—from canoeing, swimming, golfing, hiking and biking to overnighting at historic stone cabins.
In September 2011 our area encured wildfire that affected 96% of Bastrop State Park. Firefighters were able to save the historic cabins and facilities constructed in the 1930’s.
“All areas of the park are open except the following, which will remain closed until further notice:
Area east of Harmon Road including that section of the Lost Pines Hiking Trail
Gotier Trace and areas north and south of the road
Creekside Camp Ground
Primitive Camping”
