Best Place to Commune With Nature

Zilker Park

All aboard! Grab some cotton candy and take a seat, the Zilker Zephyr will take the kids on a whirlwind (very low-speed) ride around the park. The children’s train is only one of the many reasons why kids love this park like no other. There are always enough swings, three playgrounds, and even a fire-truck turned playscape. The kids are as entertained as if they were in Wonka’s factory. Except instead of eating chocolate, they’re exercising, and instead of exploring an industrial foodscape, they are playing outdoors.
