In the late 1800s, Longhorn cattle roamed free throughout South Texas. Bandera was a

gathering place for the over 10 million head of Longhorns gathered for sale and made

their way on the Great Western Cattle Trail to railheads in Kansas and Nebraska. Bandera

played a key role in the development and growth of the cattle industry – as far north as

Wyoming and Montana.

The word ‘bandera’ is Spanish for ‘flag.’ The town derived its name from Bandera Pass, the

alleged site of the Battle of Bandera Pass – a part of the Texas-Indian wars. Legend states

for years after the battle, a red “bandera” was flown at the pass defining the boundary

between Spanish and Indian hunting grounds.

Since 1945 The Bandera Bulletin has been reporting events in

“The Cowboy Capital of the World.” The award-winning weekly

broadsheet covers all of Bandera County including Bandera,

Medina, Pipe Creek, Lakehills, Tarpley, Utopia and Vanderpool.

Printed in Taylor Texas and owned by Granite Publishing, the

Bandera Bulletin is the official newspaper of record for Bandera

County and arrives on newsstands every Wednesday.

The town of Bandera is only 1.2 square miles in size with a

population of 857 people. However, that population swells

into the thousands on any given day and tens

of thousands on weekends due

to the town’s attraction as a

tourism destination.

In an effort to serve this transient

community, the Bandera Bulletin

publishes a quarterly tourism guide

call Trailhead. This full-color

magazine is distrubuted throughout

the Hill Country free of charge.
