This is the best place to spend a Saturday hiking through the hills. Tons of native plants & wildlife, as well as streams. Only one downside: Sections of the preserve are close to 360 & you can hear passing traffic. Other than that, this is a beautiful place that I would recommend to everyone.

I like Wild Basin because it's relatively close to town. It's a step up from Austin's greenbelts, but not quite as remote as somewhere like Enchanted Rock. One really neat thing is every halloween, volunteers make a haunted trail for kids and adults alike. It's a lot of fun for the little ones and it's a lot different than a haunted house because it is in a forest with that whole ""Blair Witch"" thing going. more
