Moody Afternoon

— Tucked in north Austin in Wells Branch, the Mills Pond Recreation Area is a beauty at any time throughout the year, and especially in the fall, when the multi-colored trees paint a vibrant landscape around this lovely pond. The area is also very good for a leisure bike ride and hike. There is a graveled and cemented trail that goes for approximate 6 miles (9.5 km). The trail can be busy at times, but if you’re looking for an easy hike or ride, this is a good choice in north Austin.
