12-person pedal boat cruises about to start at Knapp Park

April 11, 2022

The Kerrville Parks and Recreation Department has announced that Hill Country River Rat, Inc. will soon begin operating a pedal boat cruise at Knapp Park as an opportunity supported by Kerrville 2050, the city’s comprehensive master plan. As part of a specific action item, this will expand paddle boat operations and provide them at other river parks.

According to the City, the boat engages participants and is pedaled by 12 stations connected to two paddle wheels, and the boat will be operated by a captain and a first mate. Operations will be by reservation only and are expected to run seasonally during the daytime, encompassing Nimitz Lake as a docking station.

Knapp Park will remain open to the public for general use like fishing and kayaking, and the public is asked to refrain from climbing onto the boat while it is docked and not in use. For additional information regarding Hill Country River Rat, call (830) 343-4289, or email hillcountryriverrat@gmail.com.

Other parks included in Kerrville’s park system include: Cypress Park (1601 Junction Hwy.), Guadalupe Park (700 Guadalupe St.), Kerrville-Schreiner Park (2385 Bandera Hwy.), Louise Hays Park (202 Thompson Dr.), and Tranquility Island (202 Thompson Dr.) All locations are open for fishing, open-water swimming and spending quality time outdoors at the river.

For more information, contact the Kerrville Parks and Recreation Department at (830) 257-7300, or visit the city’s website at www.kerrvilletx.gov.
