Devils River State Natural Area

NOTICE (4/26/13): Currently the Devils River from Baker's Crossing to Lake Amistad is far below minimum recommended flow levels for paddling trips. TPWD recommends that paddling trips be rescheduled to coincide with the return of at least minimum recommended flow conditions.

History

Devils River State Natural Area, in Val Verde County north of Del Rio, was officially acquired in May 1988. The site possesses good biological diversity, and the scenic river corridor offers a rugged river experience. The archeological significance is substantial, and the SNA preserves sites similar to those lost when Lake Amistad was impounded. Archeological evidence suggests that cultural influences from the west and east met at Devils River.
