More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step into a new Mercedes Sprinter and the van hums away from San Antonio suburbs; the Hill Country unfolds in low limestone ridges and green vines that lean toward the sun. The driver loosens the day’s schedule — three to four winery stops, a bakery, maybe a stroll down Fredericksburg’s Main Street — and the road becomes part of the tasting.

History
Fredericksburg was founded by German immigrants in 1846; the town’s European farming traditions influenced early vineyard plantings and winemaking now grown into a regional industry.
Conservation
Many local wineries practice water-conscious irrigation and preserve native prairie between rows; visitors can help by carrying out waste, using provided recycling, and minimizing glass left at informal picnic areas.
