Parks & Nature
Hamilton Pool Preserve
24300 Hamilton Pool RdBarton Creek Greenbelt is a very popular area in Austin which is 7.9 miles long with 809 acres and begins at Zilker Park. The Barton Creek Greenbelt is truly a treasure for biking, hiking (Barton Creek Greenbelt is considered the 7th best hiking trail in Texas), swiming, climbing, and more. When the water in the creek is running (usually in spring) this is a fantastic place to spend some time.
