Dripping Springs is known as the Gateway to the Hill Country where visitors and families can enjoy the richness of its natural lands, including rolling hills, bubbling creeks, and beautiful vistas. Dripping Springs is filled with local treasures and attractions such as Hamilton Pool Preserve, Pedernales Falls Spring Park, Westcave Preserve, and more.
The city has also been recognized as the first International Dark Sky Community in Texas, making the Headwaters community the perfect place to go stargazing. To protect the city’s dark skies, the Headwaters community was carefully designed to reduce light pollution and encourage star gazing, and residents can enjoy the community’s award-winning stargazing amphitheater during their evenings.
Celebrate Hill Country Night Sky Month is where local parks in Dripping Spring host guided programs in the evenings to help residents explore the galaxies in the starry sky. No matter what activities you enjoy, there’s an endless number of ways Headwater residents can enjoy themselves in Dripping Springs.
