This straightforward out-and-back lets you immerse in the trail's western and central sections without crossing the lake, perfect for building endurance.

Start at the Roberta Crenshaw Pedestrian Bridge under MoPac. Head east on the south shore path toward Zilker Park.

At 0.4 miles, pass Zilker Boat Rentals—great spot for a quick photo of kayakers on the lake.

Continue east; at 0.8 miles, reach the Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge (don't cross).

At 1.3 miles, pass under the South 1st Street Bridge.

At 1.7 miles, go under the Congress Avenue Bridge.

At 2.5 miles, reach the I-35 underpass.

Continue to 3 miles, entering the Boardwalk section with elevated views over the water and wildlife spotting (turtles, birds).

Turn around at the 3-mile mark on the Boardwalk (near Holly Street area) and retrace your steps back to the start.

Great job pushing through the turnaround!

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
