Canyon Lake, in the heart of Texas Hill Country, offers 80 miles of shoreline and numerous places to enjoy a picnic and spend some time outdoors. Surrounded by rolling hills and towering live oak trees, Canyon Lake is home to a plethora of wildlife and native bird species. If you are looking for a breathtaking panorama, Overlook Park on the eastern side of the lake is your best bet.
