Happy trails to Austin
Wednesday, February 15, 2023 by Elizabeth Pagano
Austin Public Works’ Urban Trails Program has issued an all points invitation to celebrate the opening of a new Northern Walnut Creek Trail section. On Saturday, March 4, it will be feted with live music from Ashton “Infinity Jones” Deary, food, a youth bicycle ride, a guided nature walk and a ribbon cutting. In addition, there are a number of It’s My Park Day volunteer activities available. With the trail extension, the Northern Walnut Creek Trail is now 4.4 miles – from Balcones District Park to Oakbrook Drive. Eventually, the trail will connect to the southern section of the trail to make up a 19-mile system. More information about the trail festivities can be found here.
