New Braunfels is rich in German history, and if you come back to visit during the summer, you can go to Schlitterbahn – the top-rated waterpark in the country!

Gruene, pronounced “Green”, is a very small, historic town just north of New Braunfels (no more than 2 miles). We LOVE this place, and highly recommend you check it out. Don’t miss historic Gruene Hall, one of the most famous dance halls in Texas.

Landa Park in New Braunfels offers picnic facilities under the shade of giant, ancient oak trees. Walk or jog on the park's special trails, or ride a miniature train that chugs around the 196-acre park. An excursion on a paddle boat is one of the best ways to see the Comal Springs and Landa Lake. Why not take in a round of miniature golf, relax at the playground or enjoy the flora and fauna on the Panther Canyon Nature Trail? Don’t forget to enjoy the walking arboretum tour with over 70 species of trees!
