Update on Violet Crown Trail

One of SMGA’s goals is to link to the regional Violet Crown Trail, formerly known as the walk-for-a-day trail, currently planned from Zilker Park in Austin to Kyle (west of IH35 and north of 150). We’d like to see that trail extend all they way to San Marcos, possibly all the way to the San Marcos River parks!

Here is an update from the Hill Country Conservancy on the Austin-Kyle trail, including completion of a master plan, securing easements from private property owners, and formation of a 5-person trail corp.
