About
Skyline Park sits within the Easton Park master-planned community in southeast Austin, one of Austin's larger new residential developments in the Bluff Springs area. The park gets its name honestly: from its elevated position, the views of the Austin skyline are beautiful, making it one of the more photogenic park settings in the city.
The playground has modern, well-maintained equipment typical of developer-built community parks, a step up in design quality from older city playgrounds because newer developments invest in amenity infrastructure to attract buyers. The play structures are age-appropriate across a wide range and the surrounding green space gives room for unstructured play.
For families visiting southeast Austin or living in the Bluff Springs / Easton Park area, this is the quality community park option.
The park closes at 8PM (earlier than many city parks), note this when planning afternoon visits in summer when daylight extends late.
