great tourist draw. ... more
Kerrville-Schreiner
State Park
Just south of downtown Kerrville on Hwy 16 across
the bridge you’ll see the sign for 173. Go left on 173 and two and
a half miles later you’ll come to the park entrance on your left.
This 517-acre park offers canoe and tube rentals in the Guadalupe
River. During the week it’s VERY tranquil and on weekends it’s still
an improvement over the crowds found on the river back in Kerrville.
Reservations recommended for overnight stay.
Annual bicycling event every Easter Weekend. 830-257-5392.
Louise
Hays Park is right in the middle of town, and a footbridge
crosses the river to the appropriately named Tranquility Island.
