Tour Overview
Texas Hill Country Bike Tour: River Walk | Alamo | Mission Trail | Bluebonnets
ANNIVERSARY OFFER: SAVE $300. BOOK BY DEC 15TH, 2023.
Our Texas Hill Country bike tour offers some of the most scenic biking in the country. Explore San Antonio and its famous River Walk. Cycle along San Antonio’s Mission Trail, following a beautifully restored watershed and passing several historic Spanish missions. Wind past fields of wildflowers, cross small creeks, and pass beneath live oak trees en route to the Guadalupe River and the tiny town of Luckenbach, Texas (recognizable for its namesake song by Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson). Experience the most popular ride in Hill Country, the Willow City Loop, which takes you through 
open fields of Texas bluebonnets. Explore historic Fredericksburg or visit the National Museum of the Pacific War. Ride through ranchland to Enchanted Rock, a giant granite dome from which you’ll get a unique perspective on the region. Follow the Pedernales River to LBJ Ranch, where you can take a self-guided property tour and see the Texas White House. On the way back to San Antonio, ride along lightly traveled country roads and through the town of Comfort, whose impressive limestone buildings are on the National Register of Historic Places.
