River Crossing Park

Located in a secluded spot in southern Bexar County, River Crossing Park on the San Antonio River is a quaint and beautiful oasis owned and operated by the San Antonio River Authority. Situated right off of loop 1604 between I-37 and TX-181, this park is close enough for a quick lunch outing and has the amenities to begin a weekend adventure. River Crossing Park serves as the first access point on the SASPAMCO Paddling Trail. Feel free to bring a nice picnic and make use of the pavilion to prep your gear before heading on your paddling adventure.
