Take A Texas Adventure To Our State’s Stunning Double Waterfall

Getting two for the price of one (or, in this case, two for the hike of one) is something we can always appreciate. Twin Falls and Sculpture Falls is an easy hike in the Barton Creek Greenbelt that leads to a stunning double waterfall, and it definitely belongs on your Texas outdoor adventure bucket list.

Perhaps the most popular trail in the Greenbelt, Twin Falls is an easy, 3.3-mile hike perfect for all ages and skill levels.

It leads into a dense forest whose trees have gnarled branches that look like something straight out of a fairytale. As you wind through the enchanted landscape, listen closely to the sounds of nature - a soft trickle can be heard in the distance, preparing you for the wonderment that lies ahead.

Eventually, the thick brush opens up into an expansive clearing where the pristine creek waters flow into oblivion. As breathtaking as this scene may be, it isn't even the best part of the hike!

Feast your eyes on the trail's namesake: a double waterfall that spills ever so gently into the creek. Its powerful softness is a juxtaposition that promises to leave you awestruck.

Since the hike is so short, you'll have plenty of time to stop and take in the views. Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy by the water, especially if it's a warm and sunny day.

Don't just look - hop in and test out the water for yourself! It stays fairly cold year-round, but the invigoration is undeniable.

The water is reminiscent of a faraway tropical paradise. It's hard to believe this place is right here in Texas!
