Garrison Dam on the Medina River in Bandera County provides a whitewater put-in for paddlers looking to access the river. As a dam-based access point, this location offers paddlers the opportunity to launch into whitewater conditions typical of the Medina River in the Texas Hill Country. The area serves as a starting point for downstream paddling adventures through scenic terrain. Boaters should be aware of dam operations and water release schedules, which can significantly affect water levels and current conditions. Before launching, paddlers are advised to check current water conditions and dam release information to ensure safe paddling.
