There’s nothing quite like packing up your Subaru car with your camping and hiking gear and hitting the road on a Texas road trip. One of the great things about living in the San Antonio, TX area is the abundance of great road trip opportunities within driving distance of our dealership. If you’re still making your summer vacation plans, a road trip is a great way to test out that new Subaru car. Here are a few of our favorite destinations.
Big Bend National Park: Subaru cars like the 2019 Subaru Ascent are built for traversing rugged terrain like that found at Big Bend National Park. Located in far West Texas, next to the Mexican border, it doesn’t get much more isolated than Big Bend. Embark on an unforgettable backpacking adventure that takes you through temple-like canyons, or simply take a scenic drive through this unique landscape.
Austin, TX: The state capital of Texas, Austin, boasts an incredible array of sightseeing attractions. Whether you want to explore the Texas State Capital building, dine at one of the city’s many famous restaurants or food trucks, or check out the bars on Sixth Street, you’ll be sure to find something to do in Austin.
Lockhart, TX: Located about 70 miles northeast of San Antonio, Lockhart is widely known as the home of the best barbecue in the United States. Specifically, Black’s Barbecue is frequently listed as the top barbecue restaurant in the country. Once you’ve finished your spare ribs, let off some steam at the Lone Star Gun Range.
