Olmos Basin Park

Amenities

About

Olmos Basin Park stretches across the floodplain of Olmos Creek just north of Alamo Heights, offering a surprisingly wild feel within the city. The 18-hole disc golf course winds through mature oaks and varied terrain. Paved and unpaved trails make it popular for morning runs, dog walks, and easy family hikes. The creek attracts herons, kingfishers, and wading birds year-round.

Shade Details

Mature live oaks and pecans provide good shade along the creek and central areas. Open fields are exposed. Overall more manageable than exposed hilltop parks.

Conditions & Tips

Can flood after heavy rain — check conditions before visiting. Creek dries significantly in drought years but park remains open.
