I love a good waterfall hike - bonus points if it's relatively easy so I can just relax and enjoy a leisurely stroll while taking in the sights. The Brushy Creek Regional Trail in Cedar Park checks all of those boxes, making it one of the best waterfall hikes in Texas. Not only does the trail boast TWO stunning waterfalls, but it also has tons of other scenery to enjoy along the way.

Prepare for a grand adventure when you set off on the Brushy Creek Regional Trail in Cedar Park, Texas. At 14.4 miles long, it’s certainly not a short hike, but it is rated as easy on AllTrails - so don’t be shy even if you’re a beginner!

Part of a larger trail system, the Brushy Creek Regional Trail passes by various parks and green spaces along Brushy Creek. Many, if not all, of these parks feature water fountains, playgrounds, and restrooms, so feel free to bring the whole family for an all-around good time.

Approximately 2/3 of the trail is shaded, and it’s partially paved. Wheelchair and stroller users may want to stick to the first ~3 miles, as the terrain becomes steeper and unpaved in some areas beyond that.

Although this is not necessarily a secluded trail, it’s still one of my favorites in Texas, and that’s for a few different reasons. One is the sheer length of the hike - you better believe there’s lots to see in 14 miles!

From seasonal wildflowers and lush greenery to historical markers and - of course - the beautiful Brushy Creek, there are so many photo-worthy sights to enjoy along the way.

Perhaps the best thing about the trail is that it boasts not just one, but two stunning waterfalls. This one looks like something from a tropical jungle paradise with how it cascades down the rocks between the most eye-popping green foliage you’ll ever see.

The second waterfall is a touch more urban, but it’s still just as gorgeous! You’ll definitely want to snap a few photos for posterity’s sake.
