Suggested
routes
Enchanted Rock
From W. Main Street, take FM 965 (N. Milam St.) north 18 miles to
drive past Enchanted Rock, the second largest granite outcropping
in the U.S. Continue on FM 965 to intersection of State Hwy. 16.
Turn south (right) back towards Fredericksburg. Total drive is approximately
50 miles long and should take about an hour. Route passes through
areas that historically have excellent color and some great views
as the trail winds through ranchland and by the historic homes of
German settlers.
Wildseed
Farms & LBJ
From Main Street in Fredericksburg, go east 7 miles on US Hwy. 290
to the entrance to Wildseed Farms, the headquarters of the largest
working wildflower farm in the U.S. There is no admission to the
market center, but there is an admission fee to "The Meadows"which
offers guests the opportunity to stroll the walking trails through
the flower fields and to visit "The Butterfly Haus," which
features native Texas butterflies and plants that attract butterflies.
As you leave the farm, turn East (left) on Hwy. 290 and go 8 miles
to the LBJ National and State Historical Parks. Lady Bird Johnson
led the charge for the beautification of the nation's highways,
and the park is typically loaded with color. Take a tour of the
ranch aboard an NPS tram (for a fee) or visit the historic Sauer-Beckmann
farmstead.
