All the many recreational activities for which the Texas Hill Country is famous-and then some-are available on or near Riven Rock Ranch. Activities are geared to individual pace preference ranging from laid back to revved up; couples with dissimilar pace levels can readily optimize individual quality time. Sit on the porch, or ride ‘em high horseback (available on a nearby ranch). Watch the wildlife nonchalantly stroll by or closely encounter the land and livestock of a working ranch and farm. In the Spring you are likely to witness the birth of a calf. If you bring a tube you can relax while you float the Guadalupe River, or bring a canoe and pretend you are an Indian and paddle the river. Once you get going, you may also choose to hike, bike, bird watch, fish or swim in the river or in our beautiful swimming pool.

Riven Rock Ranch serves as an ideal home base for groups who like to combine strenuous days with luxurious nights. Your hosts will help make arrangements for these activities including bicycle, tube or canoe rental. Hunting at nearby ranches also can be arranged. The ranch is strategically located for sightseeing excursions in the scenic surrounding countryside, to nearby historic San Antonio, city with a year-round fiesta fixation, and to Fredericksburg, Boerne and Comfort, old German towns with delightful strolling, shopping and festivals.
