🌅🥾 Sunset Hikes: Comanche Lookout Park 🥾🌅

Details

Let’s make Tuesdays our nature reset.

Join us for a peaceful evening hike through the Comanche Lookout Park, starting from Semmes Branch Library 📚. The trail is mostly shaded 🌳 with a gradual incline leading to one of the highest points in San Antonio, offering a gorgeous panoramic view of the sunset 🌅.

🌳 The trail winds through native trees and brush, with chances to spot 🦊 foxes, 🦌 deer, 🐇 rabbits, and even 🦅 hawks overhead. At the top of the hill, there are places to sit and enjoy the view 🌄, making it the perfect midweek recharge.

🌆 We’ll start at 7:00 PM, giving us enough time to enjoy the cooler temps and take in the golden hour from the hilltop.

All experience levels welcome! Whether you’re a regular hiker or just looking to unwind after a long day, this trail is perfect for everyone. Come solo, bring a friend, or make new connections. Let’s keep the Tuesday evening hiking tradition going! 🌅
