Friends of San Antonio Natural Area"Over 500 acres showcase a landscape rich with pecan and bald cypress trees near the river, with cactus and honey mesquite dotting the upland trails. Visitors have the opportunity to see birds such as the Green kingfisher and Painted Bunting. Running along the natural area is one of the city’s paved greenways, providing a scenic out-and-back trail. In addition to hiking the trails and biking the greenway, fishing is permitted at several river access points at this park (valid fishing license required). Swimming and boating are not permitted."
