Pace Bend Park (aka Paleface)

This 1,368-acre park on Lake Travis is operated by Travis County with over nine miles of shoreline making it one of the more popular parks at the lake if for no other reason than you should always be able to find a place to camp here. By the way, nine miles is a ridiculous amount of shoreline. There are other features you might find useful such as the designated for swimming only areas Mudd Cove, Kates Cove and Gracy Cove.  Lots of folks like to come here for cliff diving, but be careful not to land on a rock and break your neck. The terrain is varied, but the rule of thumb is the western side of the park is known for its cliffs and the eastern side has more of a gentle slope down to the water. They also have constructed some mountain biking trails out here that are on the low to medium side of the difficulty scale.  There also is a huge area of land available for hiking at the park.  Pets are OK if on a leash and RV sites are available. From the intersection of RR 620 and Hwy. 71, take Hwy. 71 west 11 miles to RR 2322 or Pace Bend Park Road. Turn right and follow the road to the park entrance.
