Beautiful park looming almost 800 feet over Austin.

We visited this viewpoint on a sunny Sunday recently and were very impressed with the view that you have on the top. One way you are looking at the city of Austin in the distance and immediately below you there is a wide lake in the Colorado River with some spectacular houses dotting the shoreline. It is rocky on top so you need to watch your footing. There are guard rails also which you should go around. Little children need to be watched also. Highly recommended on a sunny day.
2. Reunion Tower

Reunion Tower, an iconic Dallas landmark, offers panoramic 360-degree views of the Dallas skyline. Located next to the Hyatt Regency Dallas, the Reunion Tower GeO-Deck offers an indoor/outdoor observation deck and unique entertaining spaces. Visit with family, friends, a group or your sweetheart to create unforgettable memories at 470 feet in the air! * Restaurants are currently closed for renovations.

Bought a City Pass which saves you money on all the places of interest. No queues on the day we visited, handbags checked on entry. Can take as long as you like viewing the sites, and sitting in the geo-deck, where you can buy refreshments, the floor moves around very gently/slowly so you can see full circle view as you relax. Need to wait to be taken up/down in the lift. Busy times will mean lots of queuing/waiting no doubt.

This is a must stop along the Ross Maxwell Drive. It is on a short paved road off Ross Maxwell. worth the few minutes it takes to visit.

If you want to really see the desert in all its beauty then this is great place to go. Up high with a beautiful view from the mountain. If you make a trip to El Paso and really want to see something you will remember this is worth the trip.
