常见问题
为什么野盆地有保留地和收费制度?
To protect the preserve and prevent overuse, Travis County approved a new day-use fee system. 登记 and day-use fees are required on weekends and holidays only, 当参观人数达到顶峰的时候. During the 50 years of free and unlimited public access to 野盆地小径s, 自然区域明显受到破坏. 人类的影响，如穿越小径, 植物的伤害, and increased trash and traffic overwhelm the natural creek basin. Managing the number of visitors and collecting a small fee supports preserve operational costs and helps Wild Basin staff in their work to conserve and restore the preserve.

青少年(6-17岁):$3.00
