Fredericksburg, TX, has become a destination location and is only growing in popularity for its shops, restaurants, and scenic views. If you’re lucky enough to live in or near the area or are planning a visit, there are plenty of outdoor activities within driving distance where you can stop as you pass through or plan to visit over the weekend to get out of your normal daily routine and enjoy something different.
1. Hike Enchanted Rock
Enchanted Rock is a must-see destination 18 miles north of downtown Fredericksburg at 16710 Ranch Rd. 965. This state park is known for its giant rock formation and amazing views of Texas Hill Country. There are hiking opportunities for every fitness level; the most popular trail is straight up the center of the rock to the top, but there are also different trails you can take around the rock base to explore smaller rock formations, scenic views, and nature.
If your trip to Enchanted Rock reminds you of your love of the great outdoors and inspires you to plan more hikes in the near future, you’ll need a vehicle that can accommodate your active lifestyle. The new Jeep Wagoneer Carbide is a perfect choice; it’s a vehicle with the size and capacity to carry all your gear and passengers on your daily commute, hiking trips, and road trips.
2. Explore the Shops on Main Street
Main Street in Fredericksburg is lined with unique shops and restaurants, including those that feature the area’s popular German fare, coffee shops, and eateries, and is the perfect spot to spend a morning or afternoon.
