Wimberley

Cypress Creek swimming and a square that still feels like a village.

Why Wimberley is growing

Wimberley has stayed small on purpose, which is exactly why Austin and San Antonio families keep coming back for the creek, the square and the First Friday art walks. The guide below connects the town to nearby parks, signature stops, local food and golf so it can anchor a full weekend instead of a quick pass-through.

Visitor tip

The swimming hole needs a summer reservation; go early and bring water shoes.
