Leon Vista Park and Trailhead — Attraction in San Antonio

Decided to check this place out. I'm new to this side of town, so I'm trying to find new places to hike. From what I saw on a short visit, I was impressed. The main trail is paved and connects to other trailhead parking throughout the neighborhoods over here. You can take off from this point and reach O.P.
