About
Garner State Park is a Texas state park managed by State Park and Recreation, about 10 miles from the town of Leakey. The Frio River runs about a third of a mile from the park's center, and a cluster of short trails starts within a mile. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the Camp Wood weather station, about 18 miles away, show highs near 80°F in April and 81°F in October, while July and August average mid-90s highs. The Frio River offers fishing close by, and the Blinn River Trail and Crystal Cave Trail are each under half a mile away. For paddling, the Dry Frio River is about 7 miles off.
