The Swimming Hole
The number one best place to access the Frio? It’s The Swimming Hole, of course! And you have FREE access! Just make sure to get down to the river early and claim your space, as some days fill up the banks quickly. You can also access the Frio from any public road crossings…just make sure you have figured out how you are going to get back to your rental house…the Frio only flows in one direction!
