RV campers can enjoy family fun and water sports on the river in New Braunfels.
In the heart of Texas Hill Country between Austin and San Antonio, New Braunfels is the place to cool off from the Texan sun. Two rivers, the Guadalupe River and the Comal River, flow through town, affording year-round opportunities for kayaking, rafting, paddleboarding, and fishing, as well as hiking and biking along the River Road. Getting on the water is a must, whether tubing down the river (New Braunfels is the tubing capital of Texas), making a splash at the Schlitterbahn Water Park and Texas Ski Ranch, or swimming and boating at Canyon Lake. Most New Braunfels RV parks and campgrounds are dotted along the riverfront or lakeside, whether you prefer a rustic RV site with a fire pit and picnic table or a big rig-friendly RV resort with full hookups and a swimming pool. Perhaps time your visit for the famous Wurstfest in fall, a nod to New Braunfels’ German heritage.
