Join us for a 10.5-mile easy-to-moderate hike through the pineywoods beauty of Tyler State Park, where fall puts on one of the best color shows in East Texas. Our route winds beneath towering pines, over gentle hills, and through the park's valleys - perfect for hikers who want a solid distance with stunning fall surroundings.We’ll keep a relaxed, but steady pace, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the crisp autumn air, changing leaves, and classic East Texas scenery. Expect great company, photo-friendly views, and the quiet, refreshing atmosphere that makes fall hiking so special.
If you're looking for an adventure that’s scenic, social, and accessible for a wide range of abilities, this is the perfect way to celebrate the season.
Afterwards, we will enjoy a bite to eat nearby at The B Birria & Burgers, where the tacos are amazing!
