Love Autumn but missing those beach days of summer? Why not have it all with a hike to the white sandy beaches of Spring Creek through the Spring Creek Nature Trail.
The employees and many volunteers of the Bayou Land Conservancy have done an incredible job of maintaining these fabulous trails with clear paths and educational signs throughout, despite several floods over the past few years.
Pro Tip: Your phone service may not work out in the woods, but your gps will. The main trails are mapped as dotted lines so if you find you've wandered too far off a path, just pull out your favorite map app and find the nearest dotted line.
Parent Tip: Leave with plenty of time to allow your kids to play in the sand, and don't forget water and sunscreen!
You can begin this hike at the Spring Creek Greenway Nature Center mapped at the link below.
