Best Hiking Trails near Round Rock

"Sometimes it can be hard to find a good place to let your canine best friend run free and let loose some energy, especially if you live in a city. But at Red Bud Isle, dogs can run free on their own island. This 13 acre recreational space has a walking loop for humans and a whole island of forest, lakeshore, and land for dogs to enjoy."

"If parks mean nothing to you unless your pal with four paws can come, head to Red Bud Isle. This is an island in the middle of the Colorado River between Westfield and Westlake Hills. It has a lakefront, off-leash dog park, where your pup can splash and play."

"Tucked away on a little island on Lake Austin, Red Bud Isle is mostly known as a leash-free dog park. There’s an open play area just for pups near the park’s entrance. If you're dogless, however, it's also a nice place for an easy hike."

"The park is a long, narrow 76-acre greenbelt along both sides of Shoal Creek. The leash-free area is located in the Pease Park portion of the greenbelt, between 24th and 29th Street. Parts of the trail are made up of large, rough-hewn boulders that can be hazardous to dog paws and human ankles, but most of the trail is simply hard-packed dirt."

"This park located in the heart of Austin offers picturesque views of both the city and natural landscapes. Of course, there is also a mile of off-leash terrain between 24th and 29th streets. While this park offers only trails, it is a great alternative to the traditional fenced-in dog park."

"This hiking spot includes 81 acres filled with scenic trails and a dog park. You can’t go wrong with a stroll through Shoal Creek!. 🗓 Open 24 Hours 📍 2600 N Lamar Blvd, Austin, TX 78705"

"It’s an easy choice for naan & mango lasi when you’re looking for something sweet and salty. Only place on Rainey Street where you can get coconut chicken and goat curry."

"A shaded patio with a playground is the draw at Phil’s, though the kids also appreciate the hamburgers, hot dogs, and fries. A “parent recess” happy hour brings discounts to the beer and wine list from 3 to 5:30pm, and other menu items like Frito pies and onion rings round out the menu for the adults in the party. (Note: there are two additional locations on Burnet Road and North 183.)"

"The playscape outside Phil’s Icehouse is a haven for active kiddos (Credit: Phil’s Icehouse). While your eyes may be rolling at the mention of “another burger joint,” the menu at Phil’s Icehouse goes above and beyond. With a burger menu loaded with 11 varieties, and entrees like hot dogs, Frito pie, and grilled cheese, there’s a dish for everyone."

"Phil’s believe that parents deserve recess while the kids have a safe place to enjoy the playground. Phil’s features a large outdoor playscape with plenty of semi-shaded seating. Take the kids and let them wear themselves out while you relax to enjoy a decent meal with a glass of wine or beer."
