Name: Onion Creek Hike
Start: 2025-11-30T14:30:00-06:00
End: 2025-11-30T16:30:00-06:00
Location: Onion Creek Metropolitan Park

Join us on a 4-mile easy-paced hike thru Onion Creek Metro Park. We expect fall colors to be near their peak, as the park features a beautiful bottomland hardwood forest. The trail is mostly flat with smooth-packed dirt, although parts may be muddy. We will cross some small tributaries, which should be hoppable for those with average ability, but not cross Onion Creek itself, which may be deep. A few short steep hills (30 foot rise - optional) lead down to the banks.

OK to bring a well-behaved pet on leash. If problems arise, you and your pet will need to depart from the group.

Often we go out for [food and drink](https://www.thelittledarlin.com/) afterwards.

Participants must sign a Liability Waiver at the trailhead. You may view the waiver document: [https://tinyurl.com/SCSignUpSheet2020](https://tinyurl.com/SCSignUpSheet2020) .

If not already a member, we encourage you to [join the Sierra Club](http://sierraclub.org/texas/austin) (in addition to the Meetup group) and help protect the environment and our democracy.

**WEATHER STATUS:** The hike may be canceled due to expected rain or bad weather. A decision would be posted on this page 1 hour before the start time.
