I've
been
coming
to
Mount
Bonnell
for
27
years.
It's
been
my
go-to
place
to
take
first-time
visitors
to
the
Austin
area
because
of
its
beauty
and
the
fabulous
views
it
offered.
The
winding
roads
that
lead
up
to
it
require
driving
slowly,
and
on
more
than
one
occasion
I've
had
to
stop
for
deer
in
the
road.
Once
you
reach
the
park,
parking
is
easily
available
(clearly
marked)
along
the
side
of
the
road
all
along
the
hillside.
Be
careful
walking
from
your
car
to
one
of
the
entrances,
because
sometimes
people
passing
by
don't
drive
as
slowly
as
they
should.
You
can
choose
to
either
ascend
the
fairly
steep
stairs
at
the
south
entrance,
or
at
the
north
entrance
take
the
more
gradual
pathway
up
to
the
top
of
the
hill.
Once
you're
at
the
top,
there
are
benches
and
a
few
tables
and
some
stunning
views
of
Austin
that
you
can't
find
anywhere
else!
Check
out
the
boats
along
the
river,
the
very
nice
houses,
or
the
ever-evolving
view
of
the
Austin
skyline.
To
me,
it
never
grows
old.
At
some
point
of
the
last
almost-30
years,
the
Mt.
Bonnell
carved
rock
monument
on
the
top
of
the
hill
was
fractured
in
half,
but
to
my
surprise
in
this
most
recent
trip
it's
been
fully
restored
with
what
looks
like
the
original
stone!
A
must-see
Austin
stop.
