Quarry Lake

Austinites are blessed with plenty of local swimming holes to cool off in, but we bet many don’t know about this hidden gem up north. Tucked away behind the Pure Austin Fitness on Braker Lane is Quarry Lake, the gym’s privately owned lake. The good news is you don’t have to be a member to take a dip; just grab yourself a day pass instead. Whether you want to make use of the full 750m course, or you just want to enjoy some casual water recreation, Quarry Lake makes for a great swimming spot to add to your rotation.
