Overview

Balcones District Park is a good pick when the kids want playground time and a little outdoor exploring. Start with the playscape, then head out on the trail.

What Kids Can Explore

The trail leads down toward the water when there has been enough rain. It is one of our hiking picks for kids in Austin.

Why Families Love It

Mixing a playground stop with a short nature adventure keeps the outing interesting. After heavy rain, the waterfall can be an extra surprise.

Good to Know

The waterfall depends on rainfall, so do not count on flowing water. Our Austin-area waterfall guide explains why this is a different outing in wet and dry weather.
