This hike is our faster paced 2nd Saturday Hike at a 2.5 mph pace. We will begin this loop hike at Pendleton Park parking alongside Iowa Street. We’ll head over to the Idaho path to Vermont St then over to April Hill Natural Area and Park and on into Gabriel Park on some newer SWTrails built trails, then up to the Texas Hydro Park on to Albert Kelly Park and some nice connectors on Lees St and back to Pendleton Park on the future route of the Red Electric Trail.
Bring a snack, water, good footwear, sunglasses, and rain gear as appropriate. Dress and prepare for the weather on hike day. Children and well-behaved dogs on leash are welcome. For health reasons, there is no smoking on SWTrails walks and hikes. If you need to leave the hike early let a hike leader know. We try to find a restroom along the way, but it’s not always possible to do so.
Looking forward to seeing you there with us.
