About

Walker Ranch is a lesser-known gem tucked into the northwest corner of Bexar County. The rocky limestone terrain and cedar-oak scrub make for challenging mountain biking and hiking. The historic ranch structures add context to the landscape. Trails connect to the Leon Creek Greenway system, making longer rides possible. Far fewer crowds than Friedrich or McAllister.

Shade Details

Scattered cedar and live oak. South-facing slopes are exposed and hot. Morning rides on the shaded north-slope trails are manageable in summer.

Conditions & Tips

Best in cooler months. Trail conditions can be slick after rain. No facilities — bring everything you need.
