The Sabine crosses Gregg County before it becomes a state line
The Sabine is a major Piney Woods river, and in Gregg County it runs from northwest to southeast. Farther downstream, beginning in Panola County, it takes on another job as part of the Texas-Louisiana line. Here, its floodplain and tributaries are part of the county's wet-weather story.
USGS gauges near Gladewater and below Longview show current stage and flow. A gauge tells you what is happening at that station. It does not settle flood risk for a parcel or say whether the water is safe for recreation. Use FEMA maps for flood questions and TCEQ reports for water quality.
Gregg County has public river access at US 271 in Gladewater and at SH 322/149 in Lakeport. Access status and river conditions can change. Public water does not give anyone permission to cross private land to reach it.
