Austin is known for its live music, local charm, and natural beauty, but you don’t have to attend a crowded concert or hike a hill to enjoy what the city has to offer. Whether you’re a longtime Austinite or just getting to know the area, there are plenty of ways to take in the sights and sounds without overdoing it. And if you have a Companion by your side, even better.
Take in the Scenery
Not all adventures need a big plan. Some of the best moments happen on a quiet walk or during a sit in the shade. Zilker Park is great for people-watching or relaxing under the trees. Lady Bird Lake Trail is a peaceful place for a stroll with plenty of places to stop and rest. Mayfield Park offers easy walking paths and beautiful gardens, with a few curious peacocks wandering around.
Keep It Local
Love a good outing that isn’t too far from home? Try the Texas Farmers’ Market at Mueller on a Sunday morning from 10 am – 2 pm for fresh air, music, and plenty to browse. Or enjoy a cup of coffee and a lake view at Mozart’s Coffee Roasters. It’s a local favorite for a reason.
Enjoy the Arts
Austin has a creative spirit, and you don’t have to go far to find something inspiring. Visit The Blanton Museum of Art for galleries and rotating exhibits. Head over to Laguna Gloria for outdoor sculptures and peaceful scenery. Looking for music? Check the Austin Visitor Center for free or low-cost daytime shows.
Stay Cool Indoors
Need a break from the heat? Austin has great indoor spots to relax or try something new. The Austin Central Library has beautiful views and cozy corners for reading. The Lamar Senior Activity Center offers a variety of group classes, games, and social events that are easy to join.
How a Companion Can Help
A Companion can make a simple outing easier and more enjoyable. They can help with transportation, assist you in purchasing tickets and planning, or just be someone to share the experience with. Whether you want to try something new or stick with your favorite routine, we’re here to support you.
If you’re in Austin and looking for a little extra help to stay active and connected, we’d love to match you with the right Companion.
Let’s make the most of Austin together.
