- Опубліковано 21 сер 2024
- A good friend of mine and I drove just 45 minutes north of San Antonio, TX to Blanco, TX where this wonder lives, known as The Narrows. Although it rained, we trekked the 7 mile hike to get to this destination and back, totaling 14 miles. Altogether, our trip was 9 hours. We hope you enjoy what we captured on a GoPro HERO8 Black. Let me know if you have any questions!
We have been through Blanco a lot of times and never knew that existed. Great video!!!👍👍
Thanks for watching!
ULTIMATE SPLASH BRO !!!!
Growing up near this beautiful place. Everyone knew This place was off limits. A lot of people wanted to go but knew you’d get shot trying IF you weren’t welcomed! Lol. Such a beautiful amazing place.
well worth the trip, not for everyone, it can kill you if you're not prepared. we got followed by coyotes on our way back, it was pitch black outside.
Bet the locals were quite upset. Bet some of them may be making comments here to dissuade people from going. Since they are such Jerks I recommend this to any advanced hiker, make sure you take rope, and under no circumstances should you set foot out of the river bed. There are cameras everywhere, also get dropped off the locals will vandalize vehicles left whether parked legally or not, and the local cops help them in their intimidation efforts. Know your rights, visit this treasure but please take care of it while you are there!
🎉🎉
leave no trace
looks incredible
Amazing video brotha. I have to take the family there soon!!!!
Thanks bro
This is nice to see. Would rather see it live in person. Even if I had to leave a deposit to ensure we kept it clean and respect the land for others to see. These guys seemed like they are good and didn't leave trash or pollute the land. Bye Felicia
Wow, man, really an amazing place
Thanks
Dope
Did ya'll run into any problems with landowners? Where did you park and start out from?
We park about 2 miles away took a bike and gain access on road 407. We had no issue with any landowners. The only issue is get Thur the gate walls they are setting across the river bed. We got Thur them. Take Plenty of water and a 75 foot long rope
@@anthonyperez3298 thank you so much for taking time to reply. really appreciate it.
SpanGlish Speaking ItinerantZ no problem. Anytime
What’s the 75 foot rope for ?
ricardo nino to climb back up. There is a chain to Tie it to. Unless you want to go to the very end and walk all the way around to get back to the main part
Awesome video, where did y’all park? And does the rope FR need to be 74’?
I park about 4 miles away and rode my bike. We use a rope to Climb back up. We started at CR407. I don’t know the street we park at but I will fine out
@@anthonyperez3298 ever find out the name of the street you parked on? im going this weekend

I’ve wanted to go here for a while. Whats considered the riverbed on the actual narrows part? Want to make sure I dont trespass if Im walking on the cliff sides.
The easiest legal way to get there is if hike from County Road 407 and make sure you stay on the Blanco River bed the whole time. It's a tough long hike and be aware that land owners there hate people going to The Narrows and might call the police. Some people also carry printed law on a paper while hiking to Thr Narrows. Also not good idea to park on the county road. It'll alert the land owners and it's actually illegal to park on that county road now.
@@7150285 the new land owners are very friendly
@@Theoneorion still plenty of hateful land owners there...
@@7150285 that is very true
@@Theoneorion if there aren't hateful land owners there. There wouldn't be people online saying land owners are unpleasant there. Police had been called there multiple times according to peoples online...
Did you hike from County Road 407 or from Valley View Rd, and did you run into issues with land owners there? I've heard it's illegal to park on County Road 407. Land owners there and the sherrifs hates people going there even if hikers stay on the Blanco River bed. Land owners and sherrif there are corrupt from what people had been sharing online about The Narrows.
I’ll get all the information for you and message you back in a bit sorry I didn’t respond quickly
@@anthonyperez3298 hey man I’m going this wknd and could really use your insight!!!
@@poetryporn9675 what would you like to know! Make sure to have a water bag. Also rope if possible! If someone can drop you off at the start point that will help! Just stay on the river bed and you shouldn’t have any issue! Don’t go pass the purple marker because that where the owner land starts! Take glasses and a cool towel if it’s going to be hot. I took a waterproof bag and carry it on my back. You have have to Underneath some French since it crossing from one side of the river to the other due to land owner cows
@@anthonyperez3298 that’s quite helpful! But bc the destination is so analytical to get to abd they tow cars now on county road 407 I’d hate to get lost on the way down or not be at the right spot to go downstream etc do you have IG and we can chat there?!
@@poetryporn9675 @spursnation07
Would it be worth bringing an inflatable tube or inflatable paddle board? How much of the hike is spent at a rowable depth?
It’s is all mostly hiking and walking over rock. There is no need for a tube.
Haven’t been to this area yet...how long of a hike was it? Saw on one the comments that you used a bike, did you have to ditch it somewhere? New sub. Have a channel as well, feel free to check it out.
Ronie Calzoncinth I use the bike to ride from where I park my car to the beginning of the river bed off of 407. I did ditch it. Hike the rest of it. It was a total of 14 1/2 miles altogether. Make sure to check the weather. Get a early start. Luckily it was raining so it was good.
How many hours was the hike in total?
For me it was 2-3 hours also I liked your video bout the narrows its very informative
@@Theoneorion Thanks so much! 🙏
Sorry it was a total of 14hrs
14 hrs? How much was hiking rather than hanging out at the destination?@@anthonyperez3298
@@markhumphreys7040 when i went we spent an hour and a half, it's a long treacherous hike. 7 hours there 7 hours back no time for lunch or dinner eat while you walk.
pa cuando un video en español pa la raza
Yea I’m the owner thanks for your video
The owner of what!!!!!
People can't just leave shit alone. The reason we make it hard to get back there is to keep it protected from peoples grubby hands.
Why are you commenting this on my video
@@anthonyperez3298 you earned that place by taking the hike and people are being so negative about it
@@anthonyperez3298probably because it’s a free country
It's not a problem he went, it's a problem he made a video about it. It's cool to make a video about some place you discovered but not a place that you aren't supposed to be at and can get you killed for going. Some tourist are gonna try to find this place and it's gonna be real bad
Should people not respectfully enjoy nature's beauty? This place is womdrous. It is a beautiful place worth seeing because nature is beautiful and it is for everyone to enjoy. Leave shit alone? You afraid they might break something? This is such a Karen thing to comment. If people are going there littering and trashing the place I could understand the sentiment...but that is not what is going on here
