Everything is bigger in Texas, apparently, and the state's best kept secret is no exception. Hill Country, right in the heart of Texas, is a hidden gem full of BBQ, bluebonnets, swimming holes, and nostalgia for simpler times. Road tripping the loop around Hill Country gives travelers a chance to see both small towns and big cities, the coolest historical attractions and Texas's latest and greatest. Time to saddle up and hit the road!

Try the rope swing at Krause Springs, which has 32 natural springs feeding into a large pool-- it's surrounded by secluded forests, which add to the fairy tale effect.

Also make sure to take a hike through Enchanted Rock State Park; the name really does describe the colorful granite formations perfectly.
