Old Baldy

Located just a couple of miles from downtown Wimberley, Old Baldy Park is a 4.3-acre public space that features a prominent hill known as Old Baldy. The main attraction is the 218-step rock staircase leading to the summit. Once at the top, visitors can take in expansive, 360-degree views of the surrounding Hill Country landscape. The park was preserved for public use in 2015 after a community fundraising effort.
