4.  The Enchanted Rock State Park

The nigh-legendary Enchanted Rock is actually a pinkish granite mountain rising out of the Hill Country in Texas. Visitors are drawn to climbing this ancient dome not only for the views but the history and mystery of it as well. A group of prehistoric people once lived in the surrounding area.

It was also once the home of such indigenous people as the Lipan Apache. Apache legend has stories of the ghost fires seen there. They also tell tales of local hauntings by the ghost of an Indigenous woman who threw herself off the Enchanted Rock after her tribe was slaughtered by an enemy tribe.
