The City of New Braunfels is one of Texas’ top tourist destinations; home to the number one water park in the country, Schlitterbahn, offering 65 acres of family fun along the banks of the Comal River. State-of-the-art water roller coasters, inland surfing, giant hot tubs and sky coaster are all wrapped up in one park. You can even bring your own picnic and in true small town style parking is free! Keeping with the theme of one of a kind water recreation, the Texas Ski Ranch presents wake boarding without a boat on Texas’ only cabled lake system. Wonderful varieties of recreation are afforded by the waterways in and around New Braunfels and are popular for tubing, swimming, rafting, canoeing, kayaking and fly fishing. Not one, but two lovely rivers wind through this delightful city. Canyon Lake rounds out the complement of water recreations with sailing, boating, water skiing and fishing.
