Ready To 'Tube' The Rivers?

If you are going to join us for a refreshing, fun ride down the Comal or Guadalupe River here are some tips.

The Comal River is the shortest river in Texas. It is spring fed, very clean, and 68F year in and year out. Cool, but refreshing! There are 3 tube shoots... and they are LOTS of fun - and suitable for everyone. Kids do need life jackets for extra safety. We even have family dogs enjoying the ride!

The Guadalupe River is also fun to tube. It comes from Canyon Lake and winds its way through Gruene and into New Braunfels. The Guadalupe has rocks, and runs much faster. Adults and children both need life jackets. You need to rent a tube with a hard bottom in it to tube this river.
