3.5-4 HOURS! I have had questions about the Texas Hill Country just north of Houston beginning somewhere near Austin. I once drove to Fredericksburg for the weekend with friends exploring. We had excellent German food , home made sausage and strudel, ice cream and wine! We got off the beaten path and were on roads with large rock formations, roads cut through rocks winding in and out and up and down. This road was very scenic and I didn't realize Texas could really be so hilly so close to Houston! Definitely worth heading in this direction if your staying for a while and want to see a different part of Texas without driving across the huge state!
I remember we also stopped in a town known for country music, Luckenbach, Tx. It was very close to Fredericksburg.
