Friday Morning Nature Walk on the Snowden Trail

*PLEASE REGISTER FOR THIS EVENT USING THIS LINK*

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.

Join Travis County Balcones Canyonlands Preserve's (BCP) Interpretive Guide and volunteer hike guide for an interpretive nature walk 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. 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, staff will introduce you to the preserve, the species we protect, and our mission. Please wear sturdy, closed-toed shoes, long pants, and bring water, sun protection, and any needed allergy medications. For your convenience, we have hiking packs, first aid kits, reusable water bottles, and trekking poles ready for checkout. We also provide electrolyte packets at the Snowden House to help you stay hydrated.

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.

Detailed directions will be emailed to everyone who registers through SignUp.com. Just a heads-up, we won't be sending any further details on Meetup.
