Old Baldy Trailhead in Garner State Park leads to a short, steep climb to a bald granite summit overlooking the Frio River and rolling Texas Hill Country. Shoot wide panoramas at sunrise or sunset for golden light on limestone outcrops and river curves; weekday mornings and shoulder seasons (spring/fall) avoid crowds. Park entry fee and limited parking at the trailhead; bring water, sturdy shoes, and bug protection. Nightscapes work well here due to low light pollution.
