A Walk in the Woods aka Hiking Houston

Memorial Park, known as the Central Park of H-town, is an amazing 1,466-acre park (one of the largest in the county) right inside the loop! Trails are a mix of hard packed dirt, sand, trees and tree roots. It is wooded and wild in the middle of the city!

 

Join us for an hour and a half, quick-paced hike through some of the lesser-known (and more adventuresome) trails our park has to offer. Wear tennis shoes or hiking boots, as it’s easy to bang a toe on a tree root. You’ll be shocked at some of the “elevation” in the park that you wouldn’t expect from just driving by. Remember to bring water as there are no water fountains along the trails.

 

Please, check the meeting location map before you head over to the park.  It’s a big park, and we try and leave on time!
