Burnet at a Glance
Deep in Texas Hill County, surrounded by foothills, lakes and immense geological
formations is the city of Burnet. It is located 48 mi (77.2 km) north of Austin,
Texas, and is one mile (1.6 km) west of the division between the Brazos and Colorado
river watersheds. The town, once called Hamilton, was designated at the seat of
Texas Hill Country during its conception in 1851. It became Burnet in 1858. Today,
Burnet's many attractions draw people into this laid-back blue bonnet country
town. The Longhorn Cavern State Park, the Highland Lakes Air Museum, and the Delaware
Springs Golf Course are among some of the more popular attractions offered by
Burnet. Inks Lake and Lake Buchanan provide residents and visitors to the area
with countless opportunities for outdoor adventure. The Canyon on the Eagles offers
guests the opportunity to see the endangered American bald eagles while looking
out from the Eagle Eye Observatory.
