The 815,363 acres of the Pedernales Watershed contains 125 miles of river corridor, 7 counties, and two cities of growth: Johnson City and Fredericksburg.
What We’re Protecting
For more than 100 miles, the Pedernales River winds its ancient Hill Country course, cutting through deep, mossy canyons and towering limestone cliffs before joining the Colorado River at Lake Travis, west of Austin. The Pedernales is one of Texas’ most pristine and beautiful rivers—vast stretches of the river are lined by ranches and remain largely free of development, making the Pedernales a top priority conservation area.
