Superb wildflower viewing on the Marble Falls Trail

The Marble Falls Trail winds up the east wall of a wide lush canyon, exposing the trail to plenty of sun from the south and west. This makes for great flower spotting in the spring. Indeed, most of the trail feels lined with flowers, giving hikers plenty to look at on the 8-mile round-trip hike to Marble Falls.

See the Marble Falls Trail review for more information on this hike. For more photos of wildflowers observed along the trail, see this slideshow.
