Culture
James Avery Museum & Store
James Avery started out selling his trinkets to local church camps out of the back of a cart! Visit the headquarters for a small museum about his start and awesome exhibits on his jewelry-making process from beginning to end!
The Museum of Western Art
On the other side of the Guadalupe River is this art gallery showcasing a variety of paintings and bronze sculptures depicting rugged cowboys on the Wild West frontier!
Food
Hill Country Cafe
This is the hot spot for breakfast in Kerrville. Join the locals for a heaping plate of country-fried breakfast at the Hill Country Cafe, which also happens to be the location of the first HEB opened by Florence Butts in 1905.
Grape Juice
Here is a restaurant that decided wild game should not be intimidating, and then went and proved it. New American cooking with a funky streak, built on ingredients sourced close to home, with a wine list that wanders the world and craft beer to match. Art on the walls, an easy room, and the kind of menu where you order something you have never had and it works out.
Outdoors
Riverside Nature Center
Right off the Guadalupe River and the Kerrville River Trail, this center is the best place to learn about the native plants of the area. Not only can you roam beautiful gardens of Texas wildflowers, but it’s also a Certified Butterfly Garden, meaning that during monarch migrations, this is the ideal spot to see dozens!
Kerrville River Trail
Hop on this trail that winds along the Guadalupe River for a whole new view of Kerrville. Surrounded on either side by lush greenery, the 4-mile long trail connects 5 city parks, and bikes are available for rent at different stops along the route.
