Flag of United States New Braunfels, Texas
Saturday, April 14, 2012

I love walking and hiking and that is what a Volksmarch (People's Walk) event is all about! The AVA club in New Braunfels sponsors a number of hikes (called Volksmarches) annually. They always have one in the Spring and another during the fall Wurstfest event.
