Used to be one of my favorite spots in the San Antonio area, but they recently changed the hours to 8am to 5pm (used to be sunrise to sunset). Good luck finding the time to make it out there after work I guess…. Update: Looks like they changed it back to sunrise to sunset. Still gorgeous and beautiful views from the crest of the Jon Allen trail

Very enjoyable park for an afternoon walk. There were several trails well marked and maintained. There were a few alcoves with benches to relax and birdwatch. Texas native plants abound. A meadow was being restored so plantings were sparse. One of the cleanest, well maintained park I have been to in San Antonio!

I take my clients here for photo shoots. This place is such a beautiful gateway from the city. And the visitors who frequent the park truly care about it as I have not seen much if any liter. If you visit this park please take care of it. It truly is beautiful! @LizaMPhotography

Absolutely beautiful! I went out to take a photography session, it was quite crowded but still found a place to be. There is a $40 “donation” fee to take a session, or a yearly fee. Definitely an area more for pictures/perhaps a picnic, wouldn’t use this as a “hiking” trail.

Peaceful nature trail that is pet friendly and provided scenic overlooks. The drive to the nature area is scenic and not too far from Boerne or San Antonio. We enjoyed our hike and would recommend the trail.

Beautiful area! Would love to have the map give trail distance. The map could also have more quantitative description of trails than just "easy" or "moderate". Lovely pavilion. Clean port-a-potty.
