About this spot
Hell's Gate at Possum Kingdom Lake is a cove framed by two ~90-foot bluffs west of Fort Worth — Texas's most famous cliff-jumping spot and a former Red Bull Cliff Diving venue. Jumping is officially illegal most of the year and the heights are serious, so know the rules and your limits.
Safety first. Cliff jumping is inherently dangerous and can cause serious injury or death. Conditions — water depth, submerged hazards, and access — change constantly. CliffScout is community-sourced reference information, not a guarantee a spot is safe. Always assess the conditions yourself before jumping, and never jump where you're unsure. You assume all risk.
