What locals say

Insider tip 📍 Walnut Creek Metropolitan Park

Considered the North Austin equivalent to Zilker Park; it offers over 300 acres of diverse, open space and trails. Note that it is a leash-free area for dogs.

“North Austin’s answer to Zilker is Walnut Creek (which also happened to be a golf course before it was purchased by the city).”
