Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail
Walk a manageable section of the Butler Trail beside Lady Bird Lake for water, trees and skyline views. The full ten-mile loop is not necessary for a worthwhile visit.
The trail gives Austin a continuous public edge along the lake, linking views of downtown with quieter stretches of shoreline. It is an active shared route used by walkers, runners and cyclists, so the experience includes everyday city life. Choose a section and turning point before starting rather than accidentally committing to the whole loop.
