There’s nothing more relaxing than tubing in Texas on a sunny day. Wouldn’t you agree?
The warmer months are a time to relax, which is why an all-day float trip is one of the best things to do in Texas during summer. Landa Falls in New Braunfels offers the “longest float on the Comal,” which lasts nearly four hours from start to finish. Check it out:
You pick up your tubes at the entrance to Landa Park, which is where Wurstfest is held annually. There’s a huge sign reading “Free Landa Falls Parking;” you can’t miss it.

Several different types of tube rentals are available. Normal tubes and tubes with a bottom are $20, tubes with a bottom and cooler are $22, and coolers alone are $5. Life vests are free with each rental or $3 by themselves.

Floating to the last exit will take approximately four hours depending on your pace. It’s perfect for a day when you have nothing else to do besides lay back, relax, and soak up the sun while sipping a few cold ones with good company. You’ll also have access to Riverbahn, which is a river walk at Schlitterbahn exclusive to Landa Falls floaters. This perk includes waterside refreshment service and lounging areas plus a private shuttle pickup zone.

The best part? You can float as many times as you’d like for no additional charge! So feel free to hop out a little early, grab a bite to eat, and sit at one of the park’s private picnic tables while watching other tubers leisurely float by — then jump right back in when you’re ready! (This way, you can do the tube chute more than once!)

Once you exit, an air-conditioned shuttle will take you right back to your car, removing the hassle of figuring out where in tarnation you ended up that often comes along with tubing.

Questions to Answer June 05, 2019 Katie Lawrence Where is the best place to go tubing in Texas? The Comal River is definitely the best place to go tubing in Texas. It offers float trips of varying lengths, so both beginners and seasoned participants are guaranteed to have an enjoyable experience. Getting off at the first exit takes about three hours, or you can make it a full day activity and keep the fun going. There’s plenty of shade to protect you from the overbearing Texas summertime sun, and Schlitterbahn New Braunfels is right next door. Several river tour companies are available to shuttle you to the access point, but the aforementioned Landa Falls offers the longest trip. What else can I do besides tubing at the Comal River? In addition to tubing, you can also canoe and kayak on the Comal. Many of the same companies that facilitate inner tube rides also offer these rentals. At the 51-acre Landa Park, which is located right next to the river, families are able to hike, picnic, play mini golf, and ride a miniature train. Does Texas have clean rivers? Yes, the rivers in Texas are extremely clean. In 1991, the TCEQ passed a Clean Rivers Act that requires regular assessments and management of water quality. Alcoholic beverages, which were a major contributing factor to litter on the rivers, have either been banned or are required to be disposed of in designated collection bins placed along the route.
