Wag! Walkers know Austin Hills
Austin Hills is a suburban area located northwest of downtown off of US-183. Just down the road from the neighborhood are major grocers, including H-E-B, Costco, Trader Joe's, and Target. The Arboretum, a local-favorite for relaxed outdoor shopping, known for its shady Oak trees and two-story Barnes & Noble is just 5 minutes away.
Despite the roar of the main highway and accumulation of commercial businesses, once further into the neighborhood, it's a quiet, residential area with plenty of sidewalks and little car traffic. You'll even find the Great Hills Neighborhood Park, which is beautiful during every Texas season with rock formations, creeks, and even has a Floral Park. The many trails that wind through the protected forest, which rests on the 85 acres of the Bull Creek Watershed, are dog-friendly, but leashes are required.

What is the terrain like in Austin Hills?
Mild hills within the residential neighborhoods are easy to climb and keep your pooch motivated as the sidewalks and streets are well-maintained. Most of the houses were built between the 1980's and early 2000's, which means the sidewalks and paths are relatively new and not yet cracked or pot-holed by weather and time.
Walking paths in Great Hills Neighborhood Park, which is nestled in the residential areas, require beginner to intermediate hiking skills. Some paths are quite craggy, covered with pebbles or rocks, but stark differences in elevation are not present. Expect variation, as the trail takes its adventurers up-and-down, up-and-down through a number of picturesque views.

How many greenways are there in Austin Hills?
There are around 2 miles of trails to explore within Great Hills Neighborhood Park, each leading you to a different view and experience within the park. If your dog enjoys playing in the water, rejoice! This greenway offers plenty of opportunities to interact with creeks and riverbeds, especially in the spring when rainfall is probable.
This area is quite forested, so even on hot days, you'll be saved by the shade.
