There is plenty of room to swim and get wet, both in the deeper area below the falls and in the stream just above the falls! And the actual waterfall in a wonderful sight!Ībout a mile past Twin Falls is Sculpture Falls. The water gets deep enough in places to jump from the upper ledge to the lower ledge.
Right now, there is only one fall working, but it was more than enough for hours of fun! Twin Falls is located about a half mile from the trailhead, along a well-tended and downward heading trail.
And because the trail is so long, you can be assured at finding your own private spot somewhere! There are cliffs perfect for rock climbing, areas where kayaks can run. Once down, along the entire trail, there are lots of points to stop off and enjoy the creek. You will join the main Barton Spring trail right around mile 4.75. Start at the trail head right off of Capital of Texas highway, and it will lead you downward to the main Barton Springs trail. If you continue past Sculpture Falls, you will come to the Hill of Life – and upward climb of about a quarter mile – ending at Scottish Woods trail head.
#TWIN FALLS WATERFALL DIRECTIONS HOW TO#
How to access the Twin Falls / Sculpture Falls Trailhead Twin Falls and Sculpture Falls are on the south end of the trail. There are multiple entrance points including Zilker Park and off of Capital of Texas Highway. The Barton Springs Greenbelt trail follows Barton Creek for 8 miles from Zilker park to the trail end at Scottish Woods. It is minutes from downtown, and yet, hiking along the Barton Creek Greenbelt, you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere! This has to be one of my favorite hikes in all of Austin.
