Hamilton Pool in Austin, TX — cordially, mads.

With the end of summer approaching, now is the time to throw together a last minute vacation… Or to begin planning your next one. If you’ve never ventured to Austin, Texas, you might want to consider it. Located a convenient 40 minutes from downtown, Hamilton Pool is the perfect destination for a day trip out of the city! This spring fed pool is complete with 50 foot waterfalls and beautiful vegetation surrounding it.

Admission is $15 per car and our number one Lala tip is to arrive early. Arriving mid-day, the queue looks longer than the line for One Direction meet & greet passes. Set out to show up at or before 9am when the park opens.

Put on comfortable hiking shoes, pack plenty of water and sunscreen, and grab your favorite inner tube because we know your wanderlust qualities are vying to bring you to this unbelievably stunning location!
