Things To Do

Downtown Austin

If you are coming from out of town and want a mix of the Austin City and Hill Country, we recommend you come in early and stay in downtown Austin Thursday, May 12. Plan to stay in Dripping Springs (~45 minutes from downtown Austin) Friday-Sunday.

Great casual breakfast spot!

The Salt Lick BBQ

Great Texas BBQ with tons of outdoor seating and live music

Enchanted Rock

If you are looking to get active, head out an hour outside of Dripping Springs, TX to Enchanted Rock. The massive pink granite dome rising above Central Texas has drawn people for thousands of years. But there’s more at Enchanted Rock State Natural Area than just the dome. The scenery, rock formations and legends are magical, too! Explore nearly 11 miles of hiking trails.

Torchys Tacos

Pedernales Falls State Park

Here at Pedernales Falls State Park, you can camp, hike, mountain bike, picnic, geocache, bird watch and ride horses. On the river, you can swim, wade, tube or fish. Look for local wildlife and plants at the bird blind and butterfly garden.

Treaty Oak Distilling

Treaty Oak is one of the few local distilleries we’ve seen that actually produces a few different spirits. They also serve food through Alice's Restaurant

Desert Door Distillery

Desert Door Sotol is a distillery that specializes in sotol - a spirit that, to the uninitiated, can best be described as a distant cousin of tequila, made from the sotol plant that grows in abundance in the Texas Hill Country. They have live music playing on most nights and if you get hungry, there’s a great food trailer outside called Eden West.
