Experience the breathtaking beauty of Cleburne State Park at the height of wildflower season. Located on the northern edge of the Texas Hill Country, the trails wind through peaceful juniper forests and open fields where wildflowers stretch seemingly to the horizon, creating a photographer’s paradise.
We’ll cover almost all of the park’s trails (about 10 miles), enjoying a steady, moderate hike and taking in the colorful landscapes along the way. This is a perfect opportunity to share the trail with fellow nature lovers, take in the fresh spring air, and revel in the sights, scents, and serenity of a Hill Country spring.
Whether you’re looking for a wildflower-filled adventure, scenic photos, or just a relaxing day on the trails, this hike offers it all in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
After our hike we will head over to Morris Neal's Handy Hamburgers to replenish ourselves.
