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.

Why go

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.

What to look for

  • Waterfront paths around Lady Bird Lake
  • Downtown views from the shore

Useful to know

  • Check current trail detours and choose a section that fits your time.
  • Share the path with runners and cyclists.
