Enchanted rock is a stupendous 500' rock dome North of Fredericksburg, estimated to be over 1 billion years old. It is a fun and not particularly difficult climb to the top for someone in reasonably good condition. Once on the rock there is no actual trail and the truly hardy can just go straight up. We did switchbacks on the... more

If you can't make it to Australia to see Ayers Rock, then this is the next best thing. Enchanted Rock is almost 2000 feet above sea level.

It was hot that day and I wished we would have taken an easier path (You are given options).... more

My husband and I went to climb the rock on our anniversary. We have never done anything like this before. I am 29 and he is 31 and in decent shape. From below it looks very high and hard to climb but it wasn't. It is hard on your knees so anyone who does not have a great set of... more
