City of Kerrville

Nestled on the banks of the Guadalupe River, Kerrville is a vibrant community that is the capital of the Texas Hill Country. Its friendly people and majestic scenery make Kerrville a natural place to live, work and play. We boast a community rich in culture and heritage.

Our local lore includes many inspiring stories of heroic deeds by our early German pioneers and the cowboys who began major cattle drives in Kerrville as they headed north on the Great Western Cattle Trail. Our community has continued to thrive since its foundation in 1889.

Kerrville is home to a multitude of popular events and attractions that draw visitors from all corners of the globe. A few of our world class events and attractions include the Kerrville’s 4th on the River, Kerrville River Festival, Kerrville Folk Festival, Museum of Western Art, James Avery Headquarters, and Schreiner University.

Kerrville is best known for its 6-mile long walking and biking trail, more commonly referred to as the Kerrville River Trail, and beautiful parks such as Kerrville-Schreiner Park, Louise Hays Park and Flat Rock Park that line the Guadalupe River which runs directly through the City and is treasured by those who live in and visit Kerrville.
