Best Place for a Picnic

Zilker Park

Lay a blanket down, and revel in all the room you've got to throw a stick to your pooch or a Frisbee to your dreadlocked friends. Someone smell patchouli? If space is what makes your special picnic a romantic getaway right here in the city, then Zilker is your park. There are haunts by the water, tiny hills for secret kisses, trees to climb, and remnants of the ACL foot traffic, memories left behind. Just put your head on a patch of bushy green, and the sky is all yours.
