About this map

Llano sits at the northern edge of this Llano County landscape, where the Llano River winds past the town's City Park and the local High Sch. The terrain to the south is defined by granite outcroppings and prominent peaks, including Bachelor Peak, Hickory Mountain, and Sharp Mountain. Numerous quarries dot the hillsides, reflecting the region's long history of stone extraction.

Industrial and rural life intersect along the Old Railroad Grade and a north-south Pipeline that cut through the countryside. Local history is anchored by the Oatman Creek Ch and Clymer Cem, providing vital reference points for genealogical research. The drainage patterns of the Llano uplift are visible through the many seasonal and perennial waterways such as Oatman Creek, Honey Creek, and Flag Creek that flow toward the river.
