Emma Long Park: The 1,147-acre park named in the honor of the first woman elected to the city council, Emma Long. Austin's largest city park offers a variety of recreation opportunities -- most notably, mountain biking. The steep, punishing trails of Emma Long Park, originally established for moto-cross motorcycle use, prove irresistible to experienced mountain bikers aching to test their technical skills and endurance. The 9.13-mile bike course, consisting of steep and rocky single-track, is accessible only to mountain bikers and moto-cross riders. Hikers and walkers can enjoy the 1.97-mile Turkey Creek Nature Trail or the 36-mile Lakeline Trail, which follows the Lake Austin shoreline.
Nearly two-dozen RV campsites are available, as well as fifty primitive (tent) campsites. Facilities include restrooms with showers, a day use picnic area, and basketball and volleyball courts. Lifeguards patrol the swimming beach on Lake Austin during weekends and holidays from May 26 through September 3 from noon to 6 PM. A one-lane boat ramp provides access to Lake Austin, and one mile of Lake Austin's shoreline is located within the park. All water recreation activities are popular on Lake Austin, including water-skiing, sailing and fishing.
The custom homes in Steiner Ranch are designed "to provide dramatic use of natural light and to stylistically blend with the landscape." Open floor plans were used with plenty of glass and windows to "invite the lakes and trees into your home."
