The Great Outdoors

Take a drive across the scenic Pennybacker Bridge, also known as the Loop 360 Boat Ramp, where the weathering steel bridge is said to blend perfectly with the natural environment of Austin and has won several architectural and engineering awards. This three-acre park is for launching and picking up watercraft, as well as access to fishing along the shoreline that is covered by a few bald cypresses and sycamore trees to offer shade.

Paddle your way around some of Austin's most popular attractions with the folks at Live Love Paddle, who coordinate Kayak Tours year round. Choose from Guadalupe River tours, Congress Bridge Bat tours and more water recreation fun.

Experience regional theater at its finest at the Austin Playhouse, which creates opportunities for artists and audiences to celebrate the human experience through professional theatrical productions that nourish minds, delight spirits, and enriches lives. With over 120 professional productions, including 36 world and regional premieres, you can enjoy the upcoming season filled with performances that you are sure to love.
