Overview

Here’s a newly expanded guidebook that takes you deep into the hearts of picturesque towns that dot the Texas Hill Country—from Bandera to Buda, Kerrville to Kyle, Grapetown to Gruene. This edition adds general information for five new towns—the new total is 34—and three new walks—two in Marble Falls and one in Leakey—for a new total of 41 specific walks. Whether you walk, drive or bike, this book slows you down so, with the aid of carefully-drawn maps, you can sense the uniqueness of each neighborhood. Veteran walk leader Diane Capito planned the routes, researched points of interest and noted locations for convenient parking, restrooms, and restaurants. Research in local archives revealed long-buried information that adds meaning to hundreds of Hill Country landmarks. The index offers a quick checklist of cemeteries, courthouses, museums, parks and seasonal events.

The most fun was learning about small towns that I had always just whizzed by without a thought or second glance. . . . I find myself putting the book in the car every time we head out of San Antonio, just in case there is time to drop in on a town I never knew I wanted to explore. -- San Antonio Current
