While there are a handful of idyllic picnic locations scattered throughout Texas, only one is considered the best!
According to a list compiled by LoveFood, the best picnic spot in Texas is Mount Bonnell at Covert Park in Austin.
Here's what LoveFood had to say about the absolute best picnic spot in the state:
"One of the highest points in Austin, Mount Bonnell gives those keen to climb to its peak stunning views over the city. Take the 102 stairs up to the top, and you’ll be rewarded with a beautiful spot with picnic tables, a viewing deck, and a pavilion. You can park further down the hill before taking a short hike that’s fun for all the family – and with the trail opening at 5am, you can even set up your picnic for sunrise."
