"Due east of downtown Austin, McKinney Falls State Park is awash with smooth limestone pools and waterfalls, making for a striking change from the rest of the city’s landscape. The park is best for swimming and hiking, but those who boulder or mountain-bike will also find great spots for adrenaline-pumping adventure. Visitors looking to stay overnight will be pleased to discover more than 80 cozy campsites, all with electricity and running water, as well as six recently remodeled cabins for rent." - Veronica Meewes, Jonathan Thompson
