Boerne is a true Texas Hill Country classic, with attractions and fun that will delight every member of the family. Rich in German history, the small town boasts 140 historic structures and the beautiful cypress-lined Cibolo Creek. This big-hearted little town is also close to San Antonio and other Hill Country treasures like Kerrville and Fredericksburg.

For an outdoor hiking experience, check out Cibolo Nature Center, home to four distinct ecosystems that are ideal for bird-watchers. Take a trip to the Old West at Enchanted Springs Ranch, where the kids can roam with longhorns, horses, buffalo, deer, zebras and join in authentic Chuck Wagon Dinner at the end of the day. Feed the ducks at River Road Park, or adventure deep underground at Boerne’s two cave attractions: Cave Without a Name and Cascade Caverns.

Prefer the city to wildlife? No problem! Boerne has a thriving historic downtown. Whether you’re looking for bargain antiques or an artisanal treasure, you can find it in Boerne’s local stores. Attend Boerne Market Days during the second weekend of every month for the best of local arts, crafts, and food.

Boerne is perfect for a day trip or a weekend away. Stay in the heart of downtown at the Crescent Quarters Inn, or enjoy nature and hunting at the Joshua Creek Ranch. Plan a visit during the Berges Fest, Kendall County Fair, or Harvest Moon Celebration for even more family fun!
