Details
Join us at everyone's favorite: River Place Trail in Austin.

Note that this is a favorite because it's probably the most challenging short hike in the area. It's a total length of 6 miles with many many steps and an altitude gain of over 1000 feet. Since the trail goes in and out of many small canyons, it's up hill in both directions!
Hikers may be charged a $10 fee per person by the River Place association to do this hike. Payment is by credit card only.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR FIRST-TIMERS
Welcome! We're glad you're joining us on this hike and hope to see you on many more in the future, but a couple of things to keep in mind.
- Please arrive about 5 minutes early for the hike. We do not wait more than a very few minutes for hikers to arrive.
- If you change your mind or can't make it, please change your RSVP.
- If you are an experienced hiker, this and all other trails that we hike are easy. However, if you are a novice hiker, you need to know that many trails are extremely rocky. This one in particular has a lot of elevation change.
We hike at a moderate pace of about 2.5 miles an hour in the woods and 3 on streets and sidewalks.
If you have problems with balance or need to walk slowly, this hike probably is not for you. However, we encourage you to join us for our regular city and neighborhood walks.
