Proudly billing itself as “the Cowboy Capital of the World,” Bandera (population 957) is a quaint little Western town surrounded by working and guest ranches. This is where city folk and out-of-staters go when they want to get away and experience a somewhat-authentic slice of life on a dude ranch.
Bandera is also proud of its rodeo heritage, touting its distinction of having more champions than any Texas town of its size. Visitors can witness this legacy at public rodeo events throughout the summer or get in touch with their inner cowboy or cowgirl through the countless horseback riding opportunities around town.
