We are going to camp 1 night at Seminole Canyon next weekend. I've seen a few photos from other travel sites and it looks pretty barren, like a desert should. I'm wondering about how long it would take to do the 6 mile hike (the trail is a dirt road along the top of the ridgeline)? Trying to see if we can get to the canyon's edge for sunset along the water. At first glance, the park maps do not show shower facilities ( eeeek ), but I called to find out they DO have showers, nice new ones. Will be traveling with a two non-hikers ( arthritis ), a kid and 2 adults. What are the "must see" parts of this rather small, barren park? I wanted to go for the scenery and petroglyphs. That might be about all they've got. Please let me know if you've been there.

After 1 night there, 2 nights at South Llano River, then a day trip to Enchanted rock. Can you believe we haven't been there yet?
