Legendary Texas “Hill Country” where
the bluebonnets flourish and the
whitetails and jack rabbits scamper. Bandera is cowpoke country
with exciting rodeos and boot scootin’ dance halls. Gently
rolling terrain cradles championship golf courses. Bandera... the
best of the West!
Activities:
Enjoy year-round, Texas-sized fun. In the summer, it's rodeo
time! Calf ropin', bronco bustin', barrel racin'. Or take
to the water with a tube or canoe on the Medina River, or
angling for bass on nearby lakes and streams. Fall brings
cool nights and the deep shades of crimson and gold to the
hillsides. In the winter, wild turkey, whitetail deer, and
wild boar entice the hunter.
Dining:
Savor some Texas barbecue... a tangy specialty throughout
the area. The promenades along San Antonio's River Walk
present every cuisine imaginable. Expect a lot... you
won't be disappointed.
Sightseeing:
"Remember the Alamo!" After a guided barge tour
of the river, you can step over
to this famous battle site and mission. Nearby museums hold Indian lore, cowboy artifacts, Admiral Nimitz's naval collection, and
dinosaur tracks embedded in rock formations.
Shopping:
Take home some of the flavor of the region with local folk
craft, quilts, carvings, or a rocking chair from a craftsman
who will ship your purchase home. Stroll the River Walk
of San Antonio and browse a never-ending variety of shops,
including a multilevel mall that bridges the river.
