Man, this video came at just the right time! I tried going last year but it was closed but plan on going this week. Can't wait to check out a park that's right in my backyard.

It’s crazy to think San Antonio city limits are a few miles away. The park is nice and quiet. The back country side of the park has some nice well maintained trails. We tried to go last year, but it always rained on the days we booked 🤦♂️

I have been there several times since its only 20 minutes away. Pros: quiet, miles and miles of trails. I also like the ferns on Joe johnston trail. Cons: not as scenic as other parks like Eisenhower or fried friedrick. The trails are very very rocky

It’s a nice park, can’t believe San Antonio city limits are a few miles away. Plan on visiting Hill Country next. The trails are rocky, but thank goodness some areas are flat. If you been to Lost Maples those rocks are no joke. We plan on visiting Eisenhower soon, I hear great things about that park.

It’s a nice hiking park. We’ve been trying to hike here since last year. It’s open 4 days a week and some trails closes when it rains. Hope you visit soon and happy hiking 😊

Nicely done. 👍 Is it just one set of dinosaur tracks?

We seen two different set of tracks. It looked like it continued, but the other area was flooded.

@@hikingwithjackieboy I seen a video about that and how they wanted to protect the water source. That’s the hike I want to do as well. It’s crazy that’s San Antonio city limits is a few miles away. BTW I’m booking a tour to see the pictographs at Devils River, we’re excited about it 😀
