Park Road 4, a scenic byway in Burnet County, is an attraction all by itself. In the spring, its hills and curves are covered in a rainbow of wildflower colors. But just off of the road are a number of attractions, including the biggest one: Inks Lake State Park.
This popular park’s features include its namesake jewel of a lake, get-lost hiking trails, and the heavenly (despite the name) Devil’s Waterhole. And just down the road are the surprisingly recreational Inks Dam National Fish Hatchery and the underground wonder at Longhorn Cavern State Park.
During your explorations, stop for refreshments at Perissos Vineyard and Winery and Hoover’s Valley Country Store and Cafe. You might even spot a real-life castle in the distance. Park Road 4 is quite the trip!
