Comments: Mount Bonnell is a small park on top of one of the tallest hills in Austin. There are about a 100 steps to get up to the top, or head to the right from the parking area to find a less steep trail. From the top, you can see Lake Austin, the Loop 360 Bridge, and downtown Austin, along with lots of expensive houses.
