Visit the Veloway on skates or a bicycle

Description: The Veloway is a skater's dream come true. 3.1 miles long, 23 feet wide, with good quality asphalt, hills to climb, sharp turns, long straight stretches and fantastic scenery have made this one of the top ten places to skate in the US for years.

There is one steep but very short climb, and lots of pretty scenery. The Veloway is increasingly popular among Austin cyclists, yet rarely overcrowded. The Veloway is open to non-motorized, wheeled travel only - no pedestrians!

The Hill Country In-Line Club raised fund to build a shaded seating area at the Veloway, now completed.
