If you are planning a trip to Texas, consider exploring the many wineries along the Texas Hill Country Wineries trail near Austin where I live. Not only are there over 50 spectacular wineries to tour and appreciate, but there are many options for accommodations along the way as well. The trail spans from Lampasas to New Braunfels, TX.

Wine connoisseurs, newcomers and everyone in between will love to explore the Hill Country Wineries either on a self-guided tour or an organized Trail, for which tickets may be purchased ahead of time.
