It’s a blazing hot summer afternoon, but the scorching heat does not seem to affect the crowds at Schlitterbahn, New Braunfels. Some of them are enjoying a drink at the floating bar. Others, lathered with sunscreen, are lazily floating on tubes in the Comal River or in one of Schillterbahn’s artificial rivers. Some others are having a whale of a time sliding down the variety of water slides. Surefire ways to beat the heat! Schlitterbahn is undoubtedly the highlight of New Braunfels during the sultry Texas summers. Voted several times as America’s best water park, it offers a multitude of water activities for all ages.
