2016 Map of Bergheim

About this map

Fair Oaks Ranch and the small crossroads of Bergheim anchor this Hill Country landscape, where the borders of Kendall, Comal, and Bexar counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages and springs, including Cibolo Creek and the meandering Pleasant Valley Creek. The rural heritage of the area is evident in the numerous family cemeteries scattered across the topography, such as Kruckenmeier Cemetery, Saur Cemetery, and Willke Cemetery, which serve as vital markers for genealogical research. Private aviation is represented by Grosser Airport, while landmarks like Indian Bluff and Honey Creek Spring illustrate the distinctive natural character of the region. This survey captures a moment of suburban expansion into traditional ranching lands, with new residential developments like those found at Mira Monte and Lost Oaks beginning to trace over the older pastoral patterns.
