“This is an all uphill trail to the top of Mt Lakeway. There is a fantastic lookout spot towards the top!”

— Donovan Acker
GPX File — Driving Directions

Overview

Features: -none-
Dogs: Leashed

Description

Although the straight ascent measure is 461 ft, the trail has a lot more "floors of gain" when you factor all the switchbacks. The grade is kind and winds you up the hill in an encouraging way.

About 0.4 miles before you reach the top, look for a small trail to your right leading out to the lookout point with a great unobstructed view of the Lakeway area and Lake Travis.

This is not for unskilled bikers or anyone who tires easily.
