Lakeway Skate Park – Lakeway, Texas
About
Lakeway Skate Park is a historic skating destination in the greater Austin area, originally built in the 1970s-1980s. This intimate park features a notably deep and steep bowl that challenges experienced skaters looking to improve their skills. While compact and best suited for intermediate to advanced riders, visitors appreciate its unique character as a classic Texas spot. The park operates weekdays from 8 AM to 5 PM. Note that the hillside location offers limited shade, and amenities are minimal – bring your own water and snacks. This challenging terrain makes it an interesting addition to any Austin-area skate tour, though it's worth knowing what to expect before your visit.
