City/town information

The most festive town for the winter holidays! As well as antique shopping, boutiques, and dining options. Head to the Pedernales Electric Company at sunset during December to watch the trees light up. And then stroll through town to take in the rest of the lights. 30 minutes away. Make a pitstop at Pedernales Falls State Park for a hike on your way.

Known as the Texas Wine Country, a great place for wine tours and tastings. In town you will find a main street lined with shopping of all varieties. If you're craving some authentic German food and feel, Fredericksburg will be able to scratch that itch. Oktoberfest and the Hot Air Balloon festival are two of many attractions to base a visit around. My favorite will always be grabbing a late (late) breakfast at the Airport Diner.

Another Hill Country favorite, with attractions such as Blue Hole, Jacobs Well, and Cypress Creek, for the outdoorsy type. Unique shops and dining for a more mellow visit.

Sightseeing

Spring is in the air! This is a beautiful drive anytime, but the wildflowers in the Spring certainly outshine the other seasons. A great activity to combine with a visit to Enchanted Rock or Fredericksburg. Or both!

Calling your inner adrenaline junky! Rock Climbing and Mountain Biking are the 2 main attractions here. But if you prefer to stay grounded, the hiking and swimming will not disappoint either.
