Leaving Del Rio, the route typically follows two-lane highways with good surfaces and wide shoulders. Farm Rd. 344 east of Brackettville becomes narrower as it climbs away from the Rio Grande River valley. You'll be traversing the famous Texas Hill Country so expect some hard riding among forested hillsides. The route passes the Lyndon B. Johnson National Historical Park. Heading into Austin, the traffic increases but you'll be able to use bike paths through the city. East of Bastrop you'llride through Bastrop and Buescher State Parks and continue along the rolling countryside dotted with small towns and ranches. Traffic will increase approaching Navasota. ABOUT ADVENTURE CYCLING MAPS Adventure Cycling maps are created by cyclists, for cyclists, and they are some of the best available for those in search of discovery and adventure in North America. The maps reflect the association's research as well as suggestions from thousands of cyclists who have explored the Adventure Cycling Route Network. Adventure Cycling develops the best cross-country, loop, coastal, and inland cycling routes available, with turn-by-turn directions, detailed navigational instructions for the tricky sections, and elevation profiles in the high country. The maps are waterproof and designed to fit in a handlebar-bag window or jersey pocket. The maps provide information specifically for cyclists: the location of bike shops, sources for food and water, and listings of overnight accommodations including camping facilities, small hotels, and cyclists-only lodging.
