InterContinental Hotels & Resorts • April 11, 2013For a refreshing afternoon, Zilker Park is the way to go. Go for a ride in the Zilker Zephyr, row a canoe or take a dip with the locals in Barton Springs Pool. It's 68F (20C) all year round!
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!

B W. • November 30, 2014Great park. The public pool is free. A nice place to escape the Barton Springs crowd. Not spring water though-- chlorinated. Small grassy area to hang out by the pool.
Austin American-Statesman • February 24, 2012Walk, swim, play basketball or just relax in this cozy neighborhood park.
exfm • February 23, 2012A great little park by the lake to kick back and relax at especially when SXSW gets to overwhelming.
Jessica J. • June 4, 2018A great choice for a photoshoot location. Minimal people, easy parking, and beautiful foliage as a backdrop. I can’t wait to shoot more portraits here!

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!!!
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.
