Come learn what makes Warbler Vista unique!

In the spring and summer, this is prime golden-cheeked warbler territory. In the fall and winter, there's still lots to see.  On the hike, you will pass moss-covered seeps that feed the Colorado River watershed, wander through the forested hillside, see huge limestone boulders and canyons, and learn about unique Texas plants and animals that call the refuge home. Plus you may spot some of the  more than twenty species of sparrows along with countless other winter birds that come here to escape the snow.

Meet at the Quarry Canyon parking lot near the trailhead. This is a moderately difficult hike through a beautiful oak-juniper forest. This 2.1 mile hike will meander up the steep new Quarry Canyon trail, then over to Vista Knoll and Cactus Rocks before descending on the Boulder trail.

As always, wear appropriate shoes, bring plenty of water, bug spray, and sunscreen.
