Krause Springs is a well-known camping & swimming site located in the beautiful Hill Country of Texas. It is located in Spicewood, Texas approximately 30 miles west of Austin. The 115 acre property is listed on the National Registry of Historical Sites and has been privately owned by the Krause Family for over 50 years.
A sanctuary filled with colorful butterflies, native and exotic foliage, quiet nature paths, and a sensational series of ponds is situated amongst the proverbial concrete jungle, located right in the heart of Austin. This urban greenspace is none other than the Zilker Botanical Gardens, signaled by the stone sign off Barton Springs Road. The exquisite 31 acres inspire nearly half a million people to visit these gardens each year. Since the natural beauty is ever-changing, locals return seasonally to find new surprises.
Though other swimming holes put up a good fight for the biggest, trendiest, and perhaps weirdest pools in town, Deep Eddy certainly takes the gold for the most historic. Austinites swarm Deep Eddy’s cool, spring-fed waters when the summer sun shines relentlessly, but many are unaware of the history the space holds behind it. As the oldest swimming pool in the state, Deep Eddy embodies that quaint elegance from a simpler time and place.
1.5 million bats take flight from the heart of Austin...and it's not even creepy.
An army of bats pouring into the sunset sky may sound like something from the latest horror flick, but each year, thousands of people flock to Austin’s Congress Avenue Bridge to see such a spectacle. Humble abode to nearly 1.5 million Mexican free-tailed bats, the Austin landmark stands as a popular attraction to tourists and locals alike.
