Stations of the Cross begin on the grounds of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church east of the new sanctuary at 105 Ranch to Market Road 1431. Inside the original chapel, walls are adorned with the emblems etched in granite. Another outdoor trail winds through oaks and cedars at St. Luke's Episcopal Church, 10063 Cypress Mill Road in Cypress Mill, just into Blanco County.

Although the Church at Horseshoe Bay has instituted a new Stations of the Cross feature this Easter season, the Highland Lakes communities share three more of the walks through the passion of Christ's crucifixion and resurrection that have become a shared tradition over the years.

Two are located at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, 105 Ranch to Market Road 1431 East, and a third is found at St. Luke's Episcopal Church, 10063 Cypress Mill Road, in Cypress Mill, just across Llano and Burnet County lines into Blanco County.
