Brushy Creek Regional Trail — Attraction in Cedar Park

The Brushy Creek regional Trail has been around since I believe very close to 2000, the trail has many subparks along it and they are nice place to stop, restroom, water and usually playscapes and picnic tables. Along the route also is the area that goes along the Brushy Creek which is very scenic and has some nice shade and cooler temperatures, especially in the summer time. The trail consists of either broom swept concrete in areas where there's a lot of erosion potential or crushed granite Trail in areas where there's not. It's a good place for runners and it extends quite a ways now. I believe there was actually plans to connect all the way from the Cedar Park edge to the hutto edge of the trail and create a potential to run a marathon out and back. That's a pretty cool feature. It can be pretty crowded on the weekends in the morning and there can be a lot of zig zaggers and kids so you may want to avoid that if you are a more advanced runner or cyclist. Especially if you are cyclist. It's also good to note that it is not e-bike friendly or any motorized types of recreation vehicles. I have seen the rangers out there from Williamson County giving people citations for e-bikes. So if you're into that sort of thing, you probably want to find somewhere else. Anyway, the part of the trail that surrounds the Dam number 7, The reservoir behind the Avery ranch golf course is very picturesque and there is also a really nice park along there. Whether you're a walker, runner or cyclist--this is a really great place to do it. And if you're advanced runner or cyclist, better to do it in off hours or...

Really an incredible trail, and I'm so thankful to Williamson County for putting forth the resources to develop and maintain it. We don't live in Williamson County--and it's a bit of a drive for us--but it's worth it.

Approx 6 miles in its current form, it starts at Twin Lakes YMCA just off the old 183 and currently ends (because of construction) at Brushy Creek Lake Park.

With an impressive design, the trail is extra wide and winds through beautiful exposed limestone cliffs, across bridges, next to sweeping fields, and most of the time -- has you right next to Brushy Creek. Perfect for joggers, bikers, or those wanting a casual walk. Plenty of space for everyone, and also lots of cool "off road options" that take you down closer to the creek and up past the limestone cliffs.

You'll see lots of folks fishing in various areas, ALWAYS folks taking family/senior/wedding photos, and people with hammocks relaxing.

We always feel completely safe, even when it starts...

The trail a continuation of location from Billingham Facility Centre towards Ennis extending to Brushy Creek water storage facility on one side with streams of Colorado river winding down to many lakes in & around. The deers, birds, squirrels,ducks are beautiful to watch. The foot over bridge is a very good view spot. The trails lead to a vast park with ways to Round Rock on one side to Brushy creek Lake,Check dam, golf course in between all are very nicely planned with fore thought.
