Review:
Lady Bird Lake is actually a reservoir section of the Colorado River which you will find right in the heart of Austin, where it separates downtown Austin from South Austin. The lake is very popular with locals who come to enjoy wonderful views of the city skyline as they kayak, paddle board or enjoy the shaded walking/running/cycling trail which runs around almost half of the large lake. Families can come and spend a few hours enjoying the trails or launching their boats for some water fun. Visitors can rent canoes or kayaks from Texas Rowing Center, Rowing Dock or Zilker Park Boat Rentals and join the locals as they enjoy this beautiful stretch of water.
Lady Bird Lake, 1820 S Lakeshore Blvd, Austin, TX 78741
