Texas highway 16

Is Hwy 16 from Thurber to Fredericksburg in good shape for a motorhome? We'll be driving US Hwy 281 going north and wondered if Hwy 16 would be a nice change of scenery going south. Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.

  • Thurber is a very interesting place. We stopped there several years ago on the way to Phoenix. Really had a good meal at the restaurant there. I think the name of it was The Smokestack Restaurant. Really an interesting place.
  • Texas 16 is a good road, you should not have any problems. It is more scenic IMHO than 281 and has less traffic.
  • Yes, the part of TX16 you asked about is good road and is interesting. The only bad portion is south of your route, it's between Kerrville and Medina.
