Austin is famous for the bats that fly out from under Congress Bridge! This only happens up until the end of September, so if you’re there while it’s cold this probably won’t work out. But if you go right along the Ladybird Lake Boardwalk where it hits 35 you’ll have the BEST viewing point. Avoid waiting atop the bridge, because they’re way harder to spot from there!

Prime spot for gorgeous views, sunsets, bat watching, and nice walks. Ladybird Lake Trail has one of the best views of Downtown, and you can park yourself by Congress Bridge to watch the bats fly out (Late Summer – Early Fall). We recommend parking by Auditorium Shores as it’s the easiest access point with the best views.

Park at the “Gaines Creek and Twin Falls Access Point” and follow the trail on your right all the way to the Falls. It’s about a half mile walk through the trail, and you’ll know when you’re there!
