Colorado Bend State Park has the Gorman Falls. It is outside of Bend, TX and is not very developed. No reservations accepted, so its first-come first-served for camping. Must make reservations for the cave or waterfall guided tour. This is to protect this environmentally unique niche of the hill country.

There is also a little park in Bend that has a spring-fed lake with a waterfall that flows year round.

The state park has 15.8 miles of hiking trails and 14 miles of mountain bike trails. When Lake Buchanan is near normal level, the trip from park to Lake Buchannan is 10-mile trip through the beautiful canyon lands of the Colorado.
