Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Place indismissible
Enchanted Rock
Enchanted Rock is a huge dome of pink granite laid in the hills of the Texas Hill Country, visible well before reaching the park. The climb on bare rock exposes to the wind and the sun, then opens a round view of oaks, scattered blocks and dry undulations of the landscape.
Culture and heritage
Fredericksburg Historic District
Fredericksburg Historic District keeps traces of its German origins in the stone facades, the old Sunday houses and the Main Street signs. Between shops, breweries, cellars and museums, the centre tells a Hill Country shaped by European settlers as well as by the Texas ranches.
Place indismissible
Hamilton Pool Preserve
Hamilton Pool Preserve protects a natural basin under a collapsed rocky vault, with a fine waterfall that descends to emerald green water. Access is by reservation and swimming depends on the conditions, but walking towards the open cave remains one of the most singular scenes near Austin.
Culture and heritage
Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park
The Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park connecting the president's life to his native landscape of the Hill Country, between childhood home, ranch, school and shores of the Pedernales River. The site makes it palpable the weight of rural Texas in its political journey, not limited to presidential windows.
