Green Thursday: Barton Creek Greenbelt
When I'm in Austin, I try to carve out time to hit the trails of Barton Creek Greenbelt, which are nature-spaces nestled in residential areas but close to downtown. The Complete Guide to Austin Greenbelt Access Points and Trails says it best:
There are multiple greenbelts in Austin, but the Barton Creek Greenbelt is so beloved that locals commonly refer to it as “the Greenbelt,” as if it were the only one. Located in south-central Austin, the Barton Creek Greenbelt contains 12.68 miles of gorgeous trails, with the main trail spanning about 7 miles. This particular greenbelt is considered one of the top hiking trails in Texas.
But this area is not only for hiking. One of the city’s most prized attractions, the Barton Creek Greenbelt is filled with mountain biking trails and beautiful limestone bluffs for rock climbing. And when there’s enough water in the creek, there are several swimming holes locals like to enjoy.
It’s hard to believe something so beautiful is located minutes from downtown. Unfortunately for newcomers, accessing the Barton Creek Greenbelt can be a little confusing. To help, here is a complete guide to all the public access points for Austin’s natural gem.
Do yourself a solid and visit the Barton Creek Greenbelt if you can manage it. It's a lovely way to re-energize, relax and meditate.
