About This Access Site
The US183 Bridge access site in Gonzales provides a convenient launch point for paddlers and boaters on the Guadalupe River. Located in central Texas, this access point serves as a useful put-in or take-out for float trips along this scenic section of the river. The site offers relatively straightforward access to the water, making it suitable for kayakers, canoeists, and recreational boaters.
This section of the Guadalupe River is popular for paddling and fishing. Before launching, check current water conditions and flow levels, as the Guadalupe can vary seasonally. Paddlers should be aware of upcoming obstacles, including bridge crossings and potential vegetation, and plan their trips accordingly. Parking availability and specific amenities at this particular access point may be limited, so arriving early during peak use times is recommended.
For trip planning, identify your take-out point before launching—the Guadalupe River has multiple access sites downstream that serve as convenient exit points for various paddling distances. Check with local paddling resources or TPWD for current conditions, water levels, and any seasonal restrictions that may affect your outing.
