Friedrich Wilderness Park is a city-run park in San Antonio's far northwest with roughly ten miles of footpaths of varying difficulty. Access is for pedestrians only: no bikes, scooters or dogs. That keeps the trails quiet for hikers and trail runners looking for a natural setting inside the city. The paths turn muddy when wet, and the city closes them until they dry, so check conditions after rain.

Routes and trail info are for planning only and may be out of date. Conditions change fast after rain. Never cross a low-water crossing with water flowing over it. Ride and run only where it's public and allowed; respect closed gates, private property and park rules. A line on a map is not permission to be somewhere. You go at your own risk. Spotted a problem?
