White Rock Overlook

Scenic spot

👍👍 This was such a beautiful spot. You can see so much of the Rio Grande down below when you go down the walking path. If you to the north side of the parking lot you can view a couple of waterfalls but be careful because there is no fence or rail so watch the kids 😉

👍👍 Like many of the reviews have said, hands down the best donuts we’ve ever had!!! We got the turtle, funnel cake, cinnamon roll, and old fashion cake donuts.
