- [The Hill Country] Lakes, spring-fed rivers, and rolling hills provide just some of the
- natural beauty of the Hill Country landscape. River rafts, canoes,
- and sailboats are as common a sight as cowboy boots in this part of
- the state, also known as the Hill Country. The State Capitol in
- Austin, built with Hill Country pink granite, is a perfect place to
- begin exploring. In addition to the natural beauty, small communities
- steeped in European tradition are a great source for antique shopping
- and wonderful cuisine, including fine Texas wines. Those with a more
- adventurous streak can enjoy one of the many dude ranches found in
- the region.
