Visit to the Hills
Meridian State Park
Off State Hwy 22, SW of Meridian, Bosque County. (254) 435-2536

Beautiful mountains, groves of cedar trees, peaceful solitude on a
small lake - just a few descriptors of this magnificent park. Located
in Bosque County just southwest of Meridian, the hills that make this
landscape so enticing consist of the northern edge of the Texas Hill
country.

The park has a few cabins and a pavilion that you can reserve for
family reunions and other parties, as well as boat ramps, swimming
areas, and campsites. When I was there with David (my son), we
met a few feral cats who enjoyed the remnants of our peanut butter
sandwiches. There were also some mean ducks and a slew of
buzzards resting in treetops that, once you follow the park road, you
tower over. Talk about a bird's eye view!

While you're in the area, check out pretty
Meridian with its old
courthouse and swing by
Cranfills Gap, a Norwegian hamlet just
southeast of the park.

As always, normal park fees apply - and the crowds aren't so bad
during the week and in early spring.
Fun place to ride!
