Easter will soon be upon us and with that, the all-important Easter egg hunts for the kiddos. Remember running around as if you were on a scavenger hunt for those golden eggs. Looking behind every tree, under any rocks searching for that one of kind dyed egg or the gem of all eggs, those filled with money.

Some of the best places to enjoy a good old-fashioned Easter egg hunt is right here in the Hill Country. If you’re in the area make sure to stop by and take in the sites and enjoy the Easter hunts around our area.
