Surrounding Hill Country Map

Fredericksburg lies in the very center of the Texas Hill Country, a geographic area that spans all
or parts of 15 counties in central Texas and encompassing roughly 10,000 square miles. This
historic town, settled by Germans in 1846, is roughly 70 miles west of Austin, the state capital,
and approximately 65 miles northwest of San Antonio, home to the legendary Alamo. The cities
of Austin, San Antonio and Fredericksburg form an almost perfect triangle in the heart of Texas.

Major transcontinental highways that provide easy access to Fredericksburg include IH 10 (Jacksonville, Florida to Los Angeles, California) --- we are just 22 miles off of this route ---
and IH 35 (Duluth, Minnesota to Laredo, Texas). Access to Fredericksburg from IH 35 is via
Austin or San Antonio, both located on IH 35.
