Plan spring, summer fun on the water at Texas Hill Country top destination
CANYON LAKE, Texas, March 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Canyon Lake, widely known as the jewel of the hill country, has seen a significant boost in water levels, sitting eight feet higher than Spring 2025, despite current drought conditions. At an elevation of 887 feet, the lake remains impressively deep, with depths in some areas exceeding 100 feet. These conditions provide ample space for all types of recreation and watercraft. Three primary boat ramps are open: Ramp 14 at JBSA Recreation Park, Ramp 18 at Canyon Park, and Ramp 19 at Canyon Lake Marina.
