About This Access Site
Bend of the River Drive Low-Water Crossing is a take-out point on Barton Creek in Austin, providing access for paddlers finishing whitewater runs on this popular urban creek. Located in central Austin near the coordinates provided, this site serves as an exit point for kayakers and canoeists who have paddled downstream sections of Barton Creek. The low-water crossing indicates this is a shallow area where water flow may vary seasonally, making it important for boaters to check current conditions before planning trips.
