6 days in Austin Itinerary

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

Your day by day itinerary now includes Rainey Street. Your inner history buff will appreciate Texas State Capitol and St. Mary's Cathedral. You'll explore and learn at Texas Military Forces Museum and LBJ Texas White House. Change things up with these side-trips from Austin: Hamilton Pool Preserve (in Dripping Springs), Jacob's Well Natural Area (in Wimberley) and Pedernales Falls State Park (in Johnson City). There's still lots to do: go all around town with Bike and Brew ATX, get engrossed in the history at LBJ Presidential Library, view the masterpieces at Harry Ransom Center, and grab your bike and head to Barton Creek Greenbelt.
