We are a friendly hiking club that meets every other weekend for relaxed yet energizing hikes in and around the Austin area. We hike every other Saturday and Sunday, covering 4 to 7.5 miles per hike, perfect for getting your steps in while enjoying nature and good company. Our hikes vary in location to keep things fresh and exciting, from Greenbelt gems to Hill Country favorites. Our trail leaders are quite experienced and seasoned, with a combined experience of hosting over 500+ hikes across Central Texas and Austin. ⛰️🌿📈
But we’re more than just hikers, we’re a community. After each hike, we gather at a local cafe, coffee shop, or brunch spot to unwind, connect, and refuel. So wear shoes you can move in, bring your water bottle, and let’s hit the trails and grab a bite after! 😋
We’re excited to see y’all on the trails/hikes! Thank you! 🌿👣

Full Sturgeon Moon Hike 🌕🥾
Spec's Wine and Spirits, 1500 W 35th Street, Austin, TX, USHey y'all! AGAIN WE ARE MAKING SOME CHANGES TO THIS MONTH'S HIKE! We’re heading out for a hike along the Shoal Creek Trail from 34th Street to Pease Park and back — a scenic 5.0-mile loop at an easy pace and with a stop half-way to visit the site of the former famous Austin Troll Malin and the Treehouse in Pease Park. 🌅✨
🕯️ Bring a light source (headlamp or flashlight) — and don’t forget your water bottle to stay hydrated!📍 Meeting Point: the southern portion of the parking lot for Spec's Wines, Spirits & Finer Foods 1500 W 35th Street Austin TX 78703*. Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/r89bSG5ZU65HLhpT8
🗺️ Hike Route:
We’ll start at the parking lot at the south end of the Spec's building, between the building and 34th Street. Please park in this area or if it is full, behind the store on Mills Avenue.
We’ll continue south along the historic Shoal Creek Trail to Pease Park where we can take a break and head back to our parking area. This is an out-and-back so if you do not want to hike the entire trail you can turn back and follow the trail back to your car.
🍻 Post-Hike Social:
There are many choices for dining in the area where we are parking and since this is a new route we will take suggestions! — feel free to join us!71 attendees
