The fall weather has Wiley and I out exploring the great parks that Georgetown Texas offers. One of the most visible is Blue Hole park within a couple of blocks of downtown. The park lies along the north San Gabriel River and has been a popular swimming hole for generations.
There is a wooded picnic area on the south side and dramatic bluffs on the north. There is a beautiful waterfall over and around the low dam that forms the swimming hole.
The hiking trail connects under the Austin Ave bridge to San Gabriel Park. There are picnic tables and a nice wooded area above the river on the south side.
The main swimming area is upstream from the low damn and is about 6 ft deep. The water is clear and clean. Perfect for swimming
There are some good fishing spots upriver and you can catch perch, bass, and catfish. Or so I'm told, with Wiley the RealDog splashing around I've never had any luck fishing. But this guy was catching em.
Blue Hole Park on the San Gabriel River is one of Georgetown's most beautiful places!
