Neighborhood

Highland Park West is located along the Colorado River, directly north of Tarrytown and four miles northwest of Downtown Austin. This sought-after location is hilly and wooded with attractive homes atop manicured lawns. Nearby parks take full advantage of the river’s natural beauty, such as the panoramic river views from Covert Park at Mount Bonnell. Bright Leaf Preserve offers scheduled tours through the 200-acre park, culminating in stunning hilltop views.

Camp Mabry, a military installation, occupies the southern part of Highland Park West and is home to the Texas Military Forces Museum. Perry Neighborhood Park is in the center of the neighborhood, near the top-rated Highland Park Elementary School. While most shops and restaurants are located outside of Highland Park West, there is a small shopping area along Hancock Drive that includes a Pampered Pets and a Balcones Books.
