Night Hike on the Snowden Trail

Difficulty: Easy – some slight incline
Distance: ~1.5 miles – 2 hours
Location: We will meet at the Snowden house, near Anderson Mill and FM 2769

Please note that pets are not allowed on the preserve.

Grab a flashlight and join Travis County Balcones Canyonlands Preserve (BCP) Interpretive Guides for a night hike through our Snowden and Bunten tracts of the BCP!

We will start at the Snowden house and walk the trail that winds its way through open fields, creek beds, hilltops, and forests - along the way, we will stop by a mothing station! The terrain is easy-moderately difficult, with a couple of semi-steep hills and some uneven ground. The trail is about 1.5 miles. Along the trail, your guides will introduce you to the preserve, the species we protect, and our mission.

The entrance to Snowden can be tricky to find. We recommend you search for "Snowden Tract, Travis County BCP" in Google maps, and it will take you to the correct gate. Also, look for the white "BCP Event" sign at our driveway.

More detailed directions will be sent to all registrants before the evening of the night hike.
