Government Canyon State Natural Area implements trail closures when trails are wet & muddy. Contact the State Natural Area Headquarters, visit the Government Canyon State Natural Area Facebook Page, or check the Twitter feed on the Government Canyon State Natural Area webpage (bottom-right corner of the main page) for more info prior to arrival as trails may be closed due to inclement weather or poor trail conditions.

If arriving after the gate closes at 10pm, customers with a reservation must contact the customer center at 210-688-9055, x0 during normal business hours (8am - 5pm) to receive the gate code for entry.
