Lost Maples Natural Area

While many think cacti is the main source of green in Texas, the Lone Star State is in fact home to the Lost Maples State Natural Area, which welcomes a beautiful flush come autumn, thanks in no small part to the relatively uncommon Uvalde Bigtooth Maples, whose reddish blush is most spectacular from mid-October through mid-November. Enjoy camping, picnicking, hiking, fishing, bird watching, and more amidst fall’s fiery colors – and plan early because the scarlet splendor that overwhelms the park during this period makes it the busiest time for tourists.
