4. Known as one of Austin’s highest points, Mount Bonnell towers over Lake Austin, offering expansive views of the city and surrounding areas. Climbing the historic stone steps to the top reveals a sweeping vista that encompasses the downtown skyline, winding Colorado River, and lush Hill Country. It's a celebrated spot for locals and tourists alike to catch a stunning sunset or simply marvel at the city's natural beauty.

Its shores are dotted with swimming holes, hiking trails, and secluded spots that reveal the unspoiled beauty of Texas Hill Country and offer a taste of wilderness just minutes from downtown Austin.
