If you’re entering from the trailhead in the Woods of Westlake Heights neighborhood, be prepared for a relentless hike down (and back up again) a rocky decent that seems to go on for a good half hour. Bringing lots of water is required for sure and wear comfortable shoes. The water was quite low at Sculpture Falls and was just sitting still as a mere puddle. No one was there. It was just hot and dried up. More towards the middle between the trailhead and Sculpture Falls we found a nice place that had running water and a baby waterfall. It was so nice! But yeah, once the trail evens out after the rocky decent, it is a lovely hike with lots of trees and wildlife (birds and little lizards, etc.). We only ventured as far as Sculpture Falls and back.
Great trail....nice and shady. Nice pavement with just a couple of spots they are working on. At the end near the Eisenhower Park the switchbacks are pretty steep but that is the only place we ran into.
I can’t say enough about this great trail. I rode it in early February 2025 on a perfect Texas day. It’s wide, scenic, and smooth. It might be a bit busy on the weekends. I highly recommend checking this trail out. I rate it a strong 5 stars! Traveling cyclist Facebook
I rode the Mission Reach in early February 2025 on a gorgeous Texas day. This trail is super and a testament to the trail building San Antonio has done. I highly recommend checking this trail out. I give it 5 stars! Traveling cyclist Facebook
I rode the Medina River Greenway in early February 2025. I started at the NE end after it connected from the Riverwalk. I only made it just a bit past Mitchell Lake. I hope to return to ride the entire trail soon. What I saw of the trail I give 5 stars! Traveling cyclist Facebook
I rode this trail in early February on an 85° day. I enjoyed it very much. I noticed a few homeless on the trail. 5 stars Traveling cyclist Facebook
I happened upon this nice connector trail. It’s a very enjoyable ride away from traffic. 5 stars! Traveling cyclist Facebook
The Salado Creek Greenway is another gem in San Antonio. I discovered it at Eisenhower Park and rode to the south end of the north section. I tried to ride to the south section of the trail but I turned around and drove to Jack White Park to do the south section. Superb trail! Five stars!! Traveling cyclist Facebook
The Leon Creek Greenway is a super nice wide paved trail through the woods. It’s curvy and hilly. It’s one of the nicest trails I have ridden. I envy the people who live in San Antonio for the wonderful trails here. FIVE stars! Traveling cyclist Facebook
I’ve ridden hard-surface bike trails in 15 states and one foreign country. I’ve never experienced one like this before. The switchbacks, twists and turns, and steep inclines make this trail more suitable for mountain bike riders, even though it’s mostly concrete. If you love a physical challenge, this is your trail, but it’s not for families out for a leisurely bike ride or for senior adults like me.
