Hill country's best-kept secret and a true hidden gem place! Pro tip: If you come around July-August, there will be a lot sweet and delicious Texas persimmons along the trails if you haven't tried them before!

The observatory experience is fantastic. The staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. I've been twice and both times were great. Make reservations as the facilty allows small groups, which is great as it allows everyone a chance to see the 2 telescopes.
