This is a new meetup for the SANH, so consider this an adventure. I’m going by what information i could find on the internet.
Parking Fee: I was told Free on weekends. But just in case it’s $3 by kiosk
Outdoor restrooms available.
Spring Lake Natural Area is a little known 251-acre park that sits just above Spring Lake, the headwaters of the San Marcos River. Bring water, poop bats, and keep leashes no longer than 6 feet. Also stay to the right side of the trail, to allow runners and cyclists passing room.
Trail Conditions: We’re looking at approximately 3-4 miles(1 & 1/2 hours), of gravel and partially shaded trails. It looks to be mostly stroller friendly.
