Kyle J. • July 19, 2016It's so large that it's usually empty so bring a blanket and spread out. I love to bring coloring books and a lemonade. You're also bound to meet quite a few dogs as they're off leash.
Jennifer R. • September 16, 2016Dog park, beautiful views, running trail...one of the best photo ops in the city and packed on weekends
Holly L. • June 20, 2012I love this park but if your dog is skittish aroundb bikes these trails may not be for you. It is great to do some legal offleash hiking though!
Evan C. • May 6, 2019An extremely short hike (106 steps to be exact) to the highest point in the city. This hilltop park give you an awesome view of the Austin skyline and gorgeous homes along the Colorado River.
Austin American-Statesman • February 24, 2012Walk, swim, play basketball or just relax in this cozy neighborhood park.
Josh A. • November 10, 2017Ponds and trails and peacocks, oh my! Also beautiful gardens. Great for a short relaxing stay or to take the kids.
Jordan • November 29, 2012One of the best shaded parks in Austin. Unique play equipment, too, like the 3 story wooden castle.
Spicey • December 7, 2015The atmosphere, the water, the ducks, walking/jogging trail, food trucks, areas to sit down and have a picnic, or sit & enjoy the scenery
Marwan M. • September 24, 2018Amazing park .. clean restrooms .. designated space for each reservation .. be aware of the snakes in the lake ..
JenKudu • May 1, 2016There's no fencing, so make sure your dog minds. There's a road just off the off-leash area. Great park!
Social N. • August 14, 2013Newly renovated, this place has the fields, trails and playground to guarantee a good time. Keep an eye out for beach access to Lady Bird Lake.
Social N. • June 26, 2012One of Austin's free summertime gems - Movies in the Park. Bring friends, pets, lawn chairs, and watch on the big (outdoor) screen. Def. suggest BUG SPRAY, CHAIRS (not just towels), and a blanket!!!
Beth K. • July 22, 2016Be prepared for a hike with a rewarding swim at the end. Beautiful! Bring your dog and a lot of drinking water!
CultureMap Austin • June 29, 2011The park was named after the late First Lady Lady Bird Johnson by then-mayor Roy Butler, who transformed the lake into a place of pristine beauty.
Social N. • June 5, 2012Don't want to pay the $3 to go to Barton Springs Pool? Want to bring a pet? Try venturing to the Berton Creek Greenbelt. To avoid MoPac traffic try entering through Zilker Park.
Austin American-Statesman • February 8, 2012Austin's largest city-owned park has a leash-free area between City Park Road, the west park boundary fence, Turkey Creek and the top ridge of the bluff line overlooking Lake Austin.
Robbie C. • November 26, 2009Take your dog hiking at Commons Ford Ranch, the best park in Austin that nobody knows about. But plan ahead, park closes at 6:00 p.m.
Rob Z. • August 14, 2014Good spot to run, with the bonus of parallel bars, pull up bars and a sit up bench. Plus, there's a free pool right next door!
Elizabeth H. • January 7, 2017Well maintained pool, park and basketball court nestled in a nice neighborhood.
Shelly T. • November 17, 2013Have a picnic or bring a blanket to read on. It's also a great place to go running if you want a change from town lake trail!
