You can enjoy parts of Lake Buchanan and the upper Colorado River that most people never see with a little help from the folks at the Vanishing Texas River Cruise.
The Vanishing Texas River Cruise is probably the best way to venture up the Colorado River from Lake Buchanan for a look at some of the rugged wilderness many early settlers found. You might even catch a glimpse of a mighty bald eagle. The Texas Eagle II, a 70-foot, 120-passenger vessel, carries passengers on “the premier ecological tour of Texas.”
It features an enclosed all-weather deck plus two observation decks and operates year-round.
To get to Canyon of the Eagles, take Texas 29 West out of Burnet to RR 2341 and go north until it dead ends into Canyon of the Eagles.
