the Holiday Trail of Lights runs from the weekend after Thanksgiving through New Years Day.

Starting on the east end of Wallace Riddell Park, thousands of lights create holiday sculptures, including a picture-perfect lighted tunnel, ready made for selfies and group photos. On Main and Washington streets, the Burnet County Courthouse features both static and moving displays. Plus, there’s the beautifully decorated Christmas tree on the east entrance of the courthouse. Next, take Jackson Street to Hamilton Creek Park where sparkling lights reflect off of the creek.

While it’s possible to walk the Burnet Trail of Lights, you might want to consider driving to each location and parking. You can park in the Square, take in the courthouse, and then walk to Hamilton Creek Park before or after visiting Wallace Riddell Park.
