If the hot summer weather has kept you huddled indoors with the AC, maybe it’s time to step outside and take a breath of that fresh fall air; and there’s no better place to take that first breath than at the fantastic outdoor destination of Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve. Unplug from the stressors of life, leave your cell phones and laptops at home, revitalize your spirit and reconnect with nature.
Nestled just six miles west of downtown Austin, owners of Luxury Homes in Austin won’t have to travel far to take advantage of the natural beauty of Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve. Established in 1977, the 227-acre wilderness preserve acts as an intriguing outdoor classroom with more than three miles of hiking and interpretive trails. Visitors can discover the wonders of nature by examining native species, wildlife, geology and natural history.
Fall brings many exciting activities to the preserve. While visiting Wild Basin, you can participate in the Balcones Canyonlands Preserve hike and lecture series or take an astronomy tour guided by the Austin Astronomical Society. You can even attend a Flintkapping and Indian Lore program where you’ll learn the art of shaping flint into stone tools.
Winter will be here before you know it. Don’t miss your chance to spend some time outdoors. For more information about the Wild Basin Wilderness Preserve, visit the website.
