4 days in Austin Itinerary

Despite its laid-back college vibe, Austin is an influential center for politics, technology, film, and music.

Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Inner Space Cavern and Jacob's Well Natural Area. Get in touch with nature at Inks Lake State Park and Westcave Outdoor Discovery Center. Get out of town with these interesting Austin side-trips: Spas (in Marble Falls) and Boerne (Cascade Caverns, River Road Park, &more). There's lots more to do: paddle through the water with a kayaking and canoeing tour, catch all the local highlights with Bike and Brew ATX, grab your bike and head to Barton Creek Greenbelt, and take a pleasant ride with a tour on horseback.
