Jollyville Unit Ramble

Difficulty: Moderate – lengthy hike with a few steep incline and declines
Distance: Approximately 5 miles – 3.5 hours
Location: We will meet at the Snowden house, near Anderson Mill and FM 2769

Join Travis County Balcones Canyonlands Preserve's (BCP) Interpretive Guides, Jaya and Aimee, for a lengthy nature hike through a portion of our Jollyville unit, where we will cover portions of three different BCP tracts. We will explore (likely dry) creek crossings, walk through golden-cheeked warbler and black-capped vireo habitat, and have time along the hike for various talking points.

The BCP is one of the nation’s largest urban preserves, covering more than 33,000 acres in western Travis County – about 50 square miles. It is made up of more than 140 individual tracts managed by both public and private partners. The BCP was created in 1996 and continues to protect habitat for seven endangered species and other species of concern found on the preserve.
