One
of the most scenic drives in Kerr County follows both forks
of the Guadalupe River trail. Not only will you enjoy a
panorama of natural beauty, you'll have the opportunity
to visit many quaint antique stores and shops, a country
store, and see a wide variety of gracious country homes
along the way. The South Fork drive begins in Ingram on
Hwy 39 and travels west, in twisting, up-and-down fashion
to Hunt. At times, the road becomes a tunnel among giant
oaks and cypress. You will pass many private camps and homes
built of native limestone, obviously designed for the full
enjoyment of nature. Stay on Hwy 39 past Hunt where the
South Fork of the Guadalupe crisscrosses the road numerous
times under low water bridges. At the intersection with
Hwy 83 turn right and stay on Hwy 83 until it intersects
with Hwy 41. Turn right on Hwy 41 to the intersection of
FM 1340. Turn right on FM 1340 back to Hwy 39 in Hunt. The
drive along FM 1340 is picturesque as it crisscrosses the
North Fork of the Guadalupe River. This drive covers approximately
75 miles.
