Peaceful Springs Nature Preserve

Located in the picturesque Hill Country of Texas, 40 miles northwest of Austin, the Preserve covers over 500 acres of wilderness, and borders USFW’s Balconies Canyonlands National Wildlife Refuge on three sides. The Preserve is not open to the public on a daily basis, but we do have guided nature walks and workshops throughout the year so check the calendar for your visit.

Started as a ranch belonging to David Castleberry's parents, he & his wife Cynthia, converted the ranch to a nature preserve in order to protect the property for future generations. Peaceful Springs Nature Preserve, LLC. (PSNP) is a privately owned preserve, and has not been open to the public in the past.
They believe opening the preserve to birding, wildlife viewing and nature photography will allow them to share their beautiful property with people who appreciate it's natural state by providing exclusive access for small groups in Black-capped vireo and Golden-cheeked warbler breeding habitat (we even have these birds).

In 2006, the Preserve opened to limited Eco tourism, with responsible travel opportunities into its natural areas. The Preserve has not been hunted for over 20 years and animals feel safe and do not fear the presence of man.

PSNP fosters conservation of wildlife using the power of nature photography while integrating art, education and natural history.
