Your Insider Guide to Volente: Olive Fest & Lakeside Fun

Written by Cathy Hale | April 16, 2015

Lake Travis Zipline

If you haven’t been over to the north shore of Lake Travis lately, we’ve got a few great reasons for you to check it out.

Located about 18 miles northwest of Austin off Farm Road 2769 is Volente, a waterfront village with an interesting history that offers family-friendly lakeside events, dining and entertainment on Lake Travis.

You can celebrate one of the world’s most widely enjoyed foods — the olive — at Volente’s Olive Fest this weekend. Or enjoy the water park, restaurant, live music and libations at Shore Club Volente Beach.

The Volente area offers a variety of outdoor excursions like horseback riding and ziplining at Lake Travis Zipline Adventures (everyone should try it once!). You can also find hidden gems like GrandAnne’s on the Lake, an amazing little bed and breakfast cottage owned and operated by Anne Steichen for the past 15 years.

There are lots of reasons why you can visit Volente for a “staycation” on the Lake Travis shores.
