Mountain Biking Ringtail Ridge

***   Add a review
#135 of 278 mountain bike trails in Texas
#5,310 in the world

Editor's note: This is not a legal access to the Barton Creek Greenbelt.

40 plus acres of partly developed parkland off RR12, with about 2 miles of unmarked loop trail, including a spur that meets RR12 in the 30-foot wide swath between Community Baptist Church and Dakota Ranch Apartments The trail was designed for mountain biking, but it also offers pleasant hiking in a surprisingly diverse natural area in a part of town that is developing rapidly. Oak groves, flowering meadows, cactus stands, and persimmon thickets are all found in Ringtail Ridge. The Ringtail Ridge tract was the site of an animal slaughter plant for many years. The foundations of the plant and other artifacts can still be seen; the land is being left alone to recover from ranching and the slaughter business
