Noisy from traffic in spots

Again, I do not understand why these are broken into 3 different hikes.  Also, it seems ther is nothing listed for the hike crossing over Spicewood.  I have never seen anyone on that side of the road.  We saw a horse and rider and this hike and one other person with a dog.  THis  is a great hike.

Love Walking Along the Creek

This hike was great for just rambling along one morning. There were not many people on the trail. It was not very difficult. It was just a great little hike.

Easy hike up the stream. Was fun going off trail and playing frogger on the rocks in the less than 1 foot deep water. Theres a rope swing at what looks like a cool place to go swimming. We will probably come back in the summer. Slight elevation gain if you don't just follow the path that goes up the stream, but its nothing too difficult. A couple of girls here jogging but no other people.

Too hot to think!

It was BLISTERING HOT when I visited this trail the other day, and I actually am not sure how much ground I covered (mileage-wise,) but I was only out there for about an hour.  I had forgotten my hat, so the heat was hard to ignore.  (The high was only 100.  "Only."  haha!)

I saw a few people, and no dogs.  Also, I didn't see one bit of garbage, as some people have mentioned.  But I did see one heck of a lot of cacti.  :-)

The creek was very low.  There were small pools in spots, packed with small fish with nowhere to go.  It's been raining lightly for the past two days, so I'm hoping those poor fish are getting some relief.

In short, it just wasn't an enjoyable hike for me.  (If you want to call it a "hike.")  When it's cooler, I'll give this trail another shot.

Pretty but not much variability

We hiked the full two miles out and back, and I was disappointed to see that the vast majority of the trail consisted of walking along a narrow (sometimes muddy) path nestled amongst waist-high greenery in the woods. It was enjoyable and the many spurs over to the creek afforded nice views (and many, many frog sightings!), but I was hoping for something besides the vanilla sameness that pervaded all but the first few minutes of the trail. Don't get me wrong -- it's a nice walk, but a destination like Comanche Bluff Trail would have been much more enjoyable.

Nice hike, muddy but nice

Checked this out today. I especially liked the choice between hugging the banks of the river or the other trails in the wide open spaces. This was pretty muddy though, more so than the two other parks I hiked this week.

They is a pretty walk for people and pets of all ages. Quite a few people but all were nice.
