By the time you are reading this, summer will have reared its ugly head, offering days filled with heat, humidity, and unrelenting sunshine, which at the beginning of the season, we all love. By the end of summer, however, we are definitely ready for the cooler temps and the final holiday of the season. The good news is that Labor Day Weekend is just around the corner. The promise of lower temperatures is just a little further down the road, and now is the perfect time to start planning your Labor Day escape to our beautiful and wonderfully hometown. This guide to the fun you can have in Austin and your stay in one of our holiday hideaways will make the summer heat a lot more bearable.
Picnic in the Park This Austin Labor Day
After the last few months, we’re all still practicing social distancing, but that doesn’t mean you can never leave your vacation home away from home! The natural landscape of Austin provides many secluded spots where you can sneak away to enjoy a lovely picnic under the trees. Zilker Park, named Austin’s most-loved park, offers over 350 acres of near pristine wilderness in which you can play. Home to Lady Bird Lake, Barton Springs Pool, and Zilker Botanical Gardens as well as a variety of paths and trails, once you step inside the borders of the park, you’ll soon understand why this spot is so special, and your Labor Day picnic will be a highlight of your Texas getaway!
A Bird’s Eye View
The best views are generally the ones from above and if you really want to appreciate the luxuriant beauty of Austin, a hike to the summit of Mt. Bonnell is the perfect way to do so. Located in Covert Park, there are 102 steps that will take you to the top, making it a slightly daunting experience, but you have a few weeks still, so if you start practicing now it shouldn’t be a problem! Once you reach the top, you’ll find yourself at the highest spot in town, staring at views that will take your breath away. Bring your camera and snap away—the pictures you take here during the Austin Labor Day weekend are guaranteed to be worthy of framing!
