Activities

All the many recreational activities for which the Texas Hill Country is famous—and then some—are available at Riven Rock Ranch. Activities are geared to individual pace preference ranging from laid back to revved up; couples with dissimilar pace levels can readily optimize individual quality time. Sit on the porch, or ride ‘em high horseback (available spring or summer 2008). Watch the wildlife nonchalantly stroll by, or closely encounter the land and livestock of a working ranch and farm—you might even witness the birth of a donkey or calf. Don’t move a muscle while you tube float the Guadalupe River, or pretend you are an Indian and paddle by canoe. Once you get going, you may also choose to hike, bike, bird watch, fish, swim, or kayak. Riven Rock Ranch serves as an ideal home base for groups who like to combine strenuous days with luxurious nights, such as equestrian trail riders, rafters, and bikers. Your hosts will help make arrangements for these activities. (Hunting at nearby ranches also can be arranged.) The ranch is strategically located for sightseeing excursions in the scenic surrounding countryside, to nearby historic San Antonio, city with a year-round fiesta fixation, and to Fredericksburg, Boerne, and Comfort, old German towns with delightful strolling, shopping, and festivals.
