Customer Reviews

• April 12, 2010North indicator is wrong on the maps

  The first two maps I have looked at have the North arrow pointing in the wrong direction. Yikes! Wolf Mountain and Lost Pines.

• May 28, 2009poorly organized

  The book is good for finding random hikes, but they are poorly organized. You can't tell which ones are closer to San Antonio, or which ones are closer to Austin. Also, after living in the area (San Antonio) for 2 years now, we have found 2 "hikes" that aren't even in the book! Please don't be expecting any real hikes to be found in the area around San Antonio. They are more just little jaunts and winding paths...some of the hikes in this book are actually major streets in downtown San Antonio!! I was hoping to find some really unique trails in this book but it has let us down. I've decided you have to get out of Texas to really find any decent hiking.

  60 hikes, 60 miles from austin texas was bought for my son who will be moving to austin.very informative and the layout is wonderful.

• January 17, 2009Excellent Book

  I bought this book for my sister for Christmas because she had just recently moved to the Austin area. She loves the it and has already been on some of the hikes and says that the descriptions and information about each hiking trial is very helpful and having this book actually helps motivate you to get out there and do the hikes.

• October 9, 2006More Austin than San Antonio

  Excellent book, very descriptive but there are more Austin trails than SA trails. Some of the trails in this book have become our faves and we would never have found them without the book.
