Grand Opening Festivities at River Ranch

When visitors to River Ranch CP got their very first look at the park’s impressive new Interpretive Center during the weekend of July 22-23, 2023, Friends of River Ranch representatives were there to welcome them and provide information on current and future park activities. At various locations in the Day Use Area, park visitors explored hiking trails, rode horses, frolicked at a playground and asked questions about local flora. Inside the Interpretive Center (where permanent displays will be installed in September) visitors were introduced to the crafts, implements and lifestyles of the Liberty Hill area’s pioneer days. Park highlights accessible by car included: expansive Hill Country overlooks; the Equestrian Area; the Improved Campground; and trailheads leading to heritage trees and the South San Gabriel River.
