Description

Added by Erin Newman-Mitchell

Stephenson Preserve Loop trail is an expansive nature-filled neighborhood loop in South Austin.

The Stevenson Preserve Trail is a 1.5 mile loop hike located in South Austin. The outer trail makes a large loop around the entire park, however there are several interconnecting trails within the loop. This trail system is part of the Stephenson Preserve, which is also connected to the Longview Neighborhood Park. Throughout the trail, you can spot several  neat art installations created by a local neighborhood artist.

The trail is great for hiking, nature-watching, running, and biking. There are several areas of inclination, but for the most part the trail is flat. It is also pretty narrow at times.

The park and trails are very family and dog friendly, just be sure to pick up after your pup! At the nearby park, there is public parking, a bathroom, a large field for sporting activities, a basketball court, and a playground.
