Certainly there are those people who spend most of their evenings listening to live music in one of the great clubs and music is certainly a significant part of Austin culture, but one of the favorite weekend activities for many of the cities residents is actually to spend some time in the great outdoors. And yes, this can include one of the city’s great music festivals, though it is not restricted to such and actually encompasses a great deal more.

Camping is actually a common passion for Austin residents and it also entice many of the people who visit this Texan capital city. However, there is a large population of tourists who may enjoy some great outdoor activities and recreational opportunities but are unwilling to give up the great accommodations in the luxury Austin hotels . And there is absolutely nothing wrong with this. It is your vacation after all, you should enjoy it however you see fit, let it hurt no one.

Some of the best recreational activities don’t even require that you leave the city. Lady Bird Lake is one of the city’s favorite features and is a great place to spend the afternoon or evening. This makes it a great place to enjoy recreational activities for tourists who wish neither to give up their luxury accommodations or drive far out into the wilderness to enjoy beautiful nature. The lake is a reservoir that was formed on the Colorado River in 1960. The name of the lake represents the city’s love for Ladybird Johnson, who was part of the contributing efforts in establishing the Town Lake Beautification Committee. It is a popular place for canoes, kayaks and dragon boats to be found and there are plenty of bike paths and hiking trails to enjoy as well. You can even catch an outdoor performance or concert on occasion and experience the city’s other favorite pastime, appreciating music.
