Copperfield Nature Trail — Attraction in Austin

Copperfield Nature Trail is a no frills trail beginning in a quiet park and features a few nice sights throughout. The trail is very narrow at parts and doesn’t have many branching paths which makes it feel very linear. It is an out and back trail so once you reach the end you have to turn around unless you don’t mind walking through the neighborhood to return to the park section. Some of the scenic views include a small creek, cute bridge, and some rock walls but for the most part it just feels lacking. If you’re bringing a dog (or garbage) please be aware the only trash cans are in the park at the beginning or in one of the apartment complexes that lines the trail. Also to note is that a portion of the trail requires you to cross a big street with no crosswalks available (not ideal). By the end of the trail we had seen just about everything and while this isn’t a horrible trail, it definitely isn’t one we’d highly recommend and certainly don’t see ourselves...

Small, but nice quiet trails. The playground has swings and a colorful playscape to climb and slide down. Picnic tables with shade and a couple of grills are available beside the playground. There are drinking fountains, including one for Fido. Many bring their children and their pups. Small parking lot in the front with handicap parking available. The trails are a sandy mix. In the springtime photo ops abound with fields of wildflowers. Nearby Starbucks and multiple fast food available. A nice...

Fabulous hiking trail under a heavy tree canopy! Moderate hike, mostly flat terrain with a few challenging spots so be sure to wear sturdy shoes with a good grip. Watch out for poison ivy and oak along the way.

A few rabbits and egrets spotted. Peaceful setting though it's so near the interstate highway 35. Go early and you'll find the trail...
