If you are wondering what else you can do on a sunny weather aside from a long dip at the pool, perhaps you may want to get some fresh air at the Town Lake Hike and Bike Trail for a scenic view of Austin’s lush greens and serene lakes. It is a great place to enjoy the nice weather outdoors as it is known to be one of the most popular and accessible biking, hiking, and jogging routes in Austin.
The Town Lake path is generally located around the south side downtown area of Austin specifically, Zilker Park. Getting there is very easy as it can be described as a huge loop. The trails are usually flat that spans about 11 miles. The view around it is breathtaking with most parts open to sunshine and it costs virtually nothing. The best time to go hike and bike would be early in the morning or late in the afternoon and evening. Facilities like drinking water, showers, toilets, and interpretive signboards as well as picnic facilities are available. After a nice outdoor experience, you can then swing by at nearby refreshment establishments.
