English Crossing Road is a low-water crossing take-out point on the Medina River in Bandera County, Texas. This access site serves as an exit point for paddlers completing whitewater runs on the Medina. As a low-water crossing, the site is located where the river crosses beneath the road, making it suitable for take-out operations during paddling trips. The Medina River in this area offers whitewater paddling opportunities that attract kayakers and canoeists seeking flowing water conditions.
Access at this location is relatively primitive, as is typical for low-water crossing sites. Paddlers should be aware that this is a natural water crossing with minimal developed infrastructure. Water levels and conditions can vary seasonally, and the site may be impassable during high water periods when the crossing floods. The area's remote nature means visitors should plan accordingly for parking, facilities, and safety considerations before arriving.
