Concan is a small community in Uvalde County in the southwestern part of the Hill Country of Texas. It sits along the Frio River close to Garner State Park and is a popular destination for summer vacationers. It is also well-known for the excellent birdwatching in the spring. There is also a Roy Bechtol designed 18-hole golf course open to the public called Concan Country Club or the Golf Club at Concan.
Several outfitters in the area haul swimmers and tubers up the Frio River to designated drop off points and then pick them up later downstream.
The name "Concan" may have originated from the card game Conquian.
