Links to Parks and Recreation Department Home Page


The Austin Parks and Recreation Department oversees over 50 miles of trails throughout the park system, including the ever popular Town Lake Hike and Bike trail. These trails are identified on the linked map designed for each park where a trail is located.

A Town Lake Trail User Survey was conducted in July consisting of approximately 1,400 completed surveys. The survey was conducted by 36 employees of the Austin Parks and Recreation Department stationed at five strategic and heavily used locations that covered the entire scope of the trail. Results can be found at Town Lake Survey. (Acrobat Reader is needed to view or print the survey pages in Portable Document Format (PDF - 1817kb).
