Bayou City Outdoors - A Walk in the Woods
AKA Hiking Memorial Park Trails
July 12, 2014
Meet at 8:45am and leave at 9:00am
We meet in the Rugby Parking lot
Memorial Park, known as the Central Park of H-town, is an amazing 1466 acre park (one of the largest in the county) right inside the loop! Trails are a mix of hard packed dirt, sand, trees and tree roots. Even with the loss of trees from the drought, it is still green and wooded.
Join us for an hour and a half quick-paced hike through some of the lesser-known (and a little more adventuresome) trails our park has to offer. Wear tennis shoes or hiking boots, it’s easy to bang a toe on a tree root. And, there’s some "elevation" in the park that you wouldn’t expect from just driving by.
Remember to bring water; there are no water fountains along the trails. As long as it is cool out (70 or less), this is a dog friendly event that your canines can enjoy with us. They do need to be on leash and don’t forget your doggy bags.
After the hike, a group is going to the Black Walnut Café @ 5512 Memorial Drive. For breakfast and coffee.
Here’s what our friends at
GHORBA.orghave to say:
“Memorial Park offers a convenient escape from the concrete jungle of Houston with seven miles of dirt trails. Trails are marked and named by their “Color” of trail markers.”
