Dowdell’s Knob

Dowdell’s Knob, above King’s Gap, is where President Franklin D. Roosevelt himself often picnicked and pondered world affairs while visiting Harris County. A life-size sculpture of the president now welcomes visitors to the overlook, a reminder of the significance of the vista before them. Hikers and backpackers are rewarded for their hard work with priceless views from Dowdell’s Knob, the highest point in Harris County. Hours: Sunrise to Sunset.
