james kiehl river bend park

This is nice little park for an hour or two of rest and relaxation. The river would be great for canoeing, but it is a long haul to the water from the parking area. There are several mistakes in area road map posted on the bulletin board, so be careful.

We dropped by this pretty park for a morning - thanks to TA reviewers! My wife and I were heading to check out Comfort, and it was good to spend some time in this local park. There was ample parking and plenty of information boards to find out about the flora and fauna. The leaf cutter ants were in abundance. We strolled down to the river, heeding the advice about staying within the park's boundaries. The views up and down river were very impressive. It would be a great place for a picnic. There are no permanent restrooms - perhaps these will appear in the future.

This out of the way park is under utilized and therefore the place to go for a calm, peaceful picnic or thinking time. Ther are no unique sites and nothing for kids to play on. So if you want to commune with nature, relax, read, or just think - this is the park for you.

This is a very pretty little park between Comfort and Fredericksburg off Old San Antonio Rd. The drive is very nice and the park was well kept. The river was running and that was good to see since there has not been much rain here.

Well done park. Nice walks and lovely river front. The gentle sloped gravel edge makes it easy to put your feet in the water. A peaceful place to spend a couple of hours

This is a gem in Kendall County. Tears dropped when I read the story of the young man that gave his life for our country, James Kiehl. Nice spot to relax, meditate and enjoy God's nature.

This little park is one of my favorites spots to stop for a picnic lunch, or do a little hiking. The trails are easy to moderate, but offers beautiful scenery and some good bird watching.

A serene 25-acre natural area named in memory of Army Spc. James M. Kiehl from Comfort, Texas. This park has grassland, woodland, and riparian habitats with about 1,600 feet of Guadalupe River frontage. A memorial pecan grove features a monument to James Kiehl and Kendall County servicemen and women, a sign that tells James' story, and benches and picnic tables. This area is ADA approved. 1.5 miles of trails and over 500 feet of historic San Antonio and Aransas Pass rail bed run through the park . A bluebird trail and chimney towers provide homes for birds and are interesting structures to see. Birders especially enjoy this park - brush piles called 'critter condos' attract many species. Birding groups regularly have walks in this park. James Kiehl River Bend Park is peaceful place to spend some time in the country.
