Texas Hill Country is one of the best places in the country for scenic and peaceful bicycling. Miles of back roads wind through rolling limestone hills and river valleys lined with graceful cypress trees. Tour historic and beautiful LBJ Ranch by bike. Cycle to the legendary country music hamlet of Luckenbach. Visit famous historic sites, including the Alamo, El Mercado, and La Villita. Ride the Mission Trail along bike paths leading to a series of Spanish missions established in the early to mid-18th Century. Partake in some of Texas’ most savoury authentic BBQ and sip upon locally produced wines during your stay for a true taste of Texas flavour.
The enchanting Texas Hill Country is one of the finest places in the US for cycling. Many of the extraordinary cycling routes follow lightly travelled single and two-lane roads that wind through sprawling ranchlands. During the springtime, the wildflowers lining the routes are prolific and brilliant—including the famed Texas bluebonnets that blanket the rolling fields in purple hues. Visit the Museum of the Pacific War in Fredericksburg, the hub of the Hill Country and a town settled by German immigrants in the mid-1800s. Historic buildings still depict a half-timbered style and the local dialect known as Texas German is still evident among descendants.
If there’s one place in Texas that every cyclist must experience, the Hill Country is it. So, pack your old faded Levis and pick yourself up a Lone Star belt buckle while you’re spinning through an amazing vacation this spring in big, beautiful Texas! You’ll come away understanding why many people still want to grow up to be cowboys!
