December’s walk (official map here(https://www.alltrails.com/explore/custom-routes/custom-route-02b2cd5)) follows four waterways in Austin's near south side: West Bouldin Creek, East Bouldin Creek, Blunn Creek, and the Colorado River. After exploring volcanic remains in the rugged Blunn Creek Nature Preserve(), we'll follow urban greenbelts for most of our 7.5 mile journey.
Between these greenbelts, we'll weave through the city's residential landscape as well. First, we'll see the hilltop neighborhood surrounding St. Edward's University. Then we'll wind into historic Travis Heights, known for mature trees and good views of the downtown skyline. Last, we'll traverse the upscale bohemian Bouldin Creek neighborhood.
As usual, some of us will likely stop for lunch at the end.
