Categories of Tourist Information. Celebrating Great Years!

Nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, Kerrville is a year-round destination with a mild climate, scenic beauty, and an easygoing charm that keeps visitors coming back. Whether you're into boating, swimming, golfing in the summer, or escaping colder climates in the winter, Kerrville has something for everyone—including the beloved "Winter Texans" (also known as Snowbirds).

Kerrville boasts an impressive hometown roster: it's where iconic Texas musician and political wildcard Kinky Friedman (“Why the hell not?!”), football star and 2012 Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel, and World War II naval hero Admiral Chester W. Nimitz all spent their formative years.

Tourists love the festivals, local art galleries, museums, parks, and world-class golf courses. Whether you're after small-town charm or cultural discovery, Kerrville has just what you're looking for.

Home to over 24,000 residents (and a good deal more during the winter), Kerrville is a growing city with big character. Just an hour from San Antonio, under 100 miles from Austin, and less than 300 miles from both Dallas–Fort Worth and Houston, it's easy to get here—and even easier to stay.

While archeological evidence suggests humans lived in the Kerrville area as far back as 10,000 years ago, the town's modern roots trace back to the 1840s. That’s when shingle maker Joshua Brown settled along the Guadalupe River. Later, legendary Texas Ranger Charles Schreiner built a ranching empire that helped shape the region’s economy and character. Kerrville was officially founded in 1889, but its spirit was forged long before that.
