Andrew C. • May 28, 2019Any space that prioritizes pedestrians/cyclists over cars is the best kind of space... southern edge of this bridge is right in the heart of the hike and bike trail along the river/lake!!!
Jennifer R. • August 3, 2018Take a walk over this bridge to get gorgeous views of the lake, and if you're here in the summer, you can see the bats fly out at dusk - amazing to see.
Jay J. • June 17, 2013Bring something to drink (with cozies *ahem* ) and some snacks. Sit under the bridge, and watch the sunset, with your feet in the water. It's pretty much "The Good Life." (pls pack out your trash!)
Jay W. • October 26, 2013This is the best way to cross the river/"lake." Unless you have one of those spy-movie boat cars. Whatever you do, don't try to ford the river, you'll do definitely die.
Darryl K. • July 13, 2012A great way to see downtown Austin, and soak up a little of the Lance Armstrong vibe.
Jonathon T. • January 16, 2022It’s crazy to me how crowded this area is during Covid. Y’all gonna die
USA TODAY • July 17, 2012Go for a summer and early fall bat paddle, when hundreds of thousands of Mexican free-tailed bats emerge at dusk from the world's largest urban bat colony under the Congress Avenue bridge.
Tom E. • November 16, 2018Natural scenery, interesting art, uncrowded trails and plenty of water fountains make this one of the best running paths in the country.

Do512 • February 17, 2012Some great upcoming shows to look forward to here! The Tomb Tradition Party during SXSW is gaining tons of RSVPs on Do512com!
Noah • March 12, 2010Great view of the crew teams rowing on the river.
Colin • February 17, 2015Nighttime movies in the park courtesy of Alamo Drafthouse are fantastic, wonderful experiences.
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!
Melanie L. • March 29, 2021Wonderful spot for sunset and to watch the bats while avoiding the south Congress bridge crowds.
GOOD • March 4, 2010A refuge for BMX lovers, this track is one of the many reasons the bike culture in Austin thrives.
Andrew C. • June 7, 2019Really great bars along this road to drink delicious cocktails/local brews, listen to live music, and hang out... plenty of different styles/vibes to choose from at each venue
Dustin L. • October 29, 2014Free 20-minute guided tours on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10am to 12pm. Reservations required
