If you’re travelling to Austin with your pets in tow, then you’re in luck – Austin’s community of pooches and paws-friendly businesses is as lively as the music scene.  Fido or Fluffy can take in the Texan heat and humidity by the pool at over 450 pet-friendly hotels, or chow down with you at nearly 500 pet-conscious restaurants.  Austin has a reputation for being a very walkable city, so naturally there’s a number of dog-walkers, dog-sitters, ‘pet day-spas’ and fun activities for your pets to enjoy on their own.

Do you like beer? Do you love you dog? Well there’s an event where proud dog owners can enjoy the raucous fun of “beerfest” along with their most loyal companion.  Pet-tober Fest is an October buds & barks event that draws many a pet owner to Austin.  Drinking from hundreds of beer varities while your dog has fun with other canines sounds too good to be true, but in Austin it’s just another annual event.

Most people assume that Texas is very desert-like, but its actually home to some pristine parks and nature preserves.  Because it is positioned between the dry deserts of the Southwest and the lush, humid regions of the Southeast, Austin has a unique blend of oases available for hikers, cyclists, or horseback riders.  Places like Barton Creek Greenbelt, Red Bud Isle and Lady Bird Lake are favorites in the Austin region.  

Some of the most popular outdoor attractions are swimming holes – because what sounds more “South USA” than cooling off in the ol’ watering hole?  Barton Springs Pool, found in the Barton Creek Greenbelt Park, is the largest natural swimming pool within city limits, in the entire country.  Texas is indeed a hot and humid place, but it doesn’t mean you or Fido have to sweat it out – just jump into one of Austin’s many waterbodies.

They don’t call Austin “City of the Violet Crown” for nothing.  The sunset sky in Austin is the place of a unique phenomenon: the Belt of Venus.  This ‘pink or purple glow’ around sunset or sunrise is a kind of twilight phenomenon that is only know to occur in Athens, Greece and Austin, Texas.  Not only does Austin show off a rosey, violet cascade of color at sunset, but the region is famous for its botanicals.  There’s no better place to witness the biodiversity of Austin than the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.  Full of flowers and foliage of all colors, this place is a favorite place for visitors.  Another great location to take in the beauty of Austin: Mount Bonnell.  At the peak of the hiking trails, epic vistas of the Colorado River and Lake Austin can take your breath away.
