Confirmed from Leon Creek Greenway's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

San Antonio needs more trails like this. I was on foot, but I really want to bring my bike here. Everything is scenic and looks well kept. Water fountains for humans but even a function that dispenses water into a little public doggie bowl (great if you want to bring your fury friends for extended times) , portable…
Casual road bike and mountain bike recommended. A lot of blind corners and pedestrians (Skinny trails). I wouldn't come here to get a good workout biking. Wildlife roams freely with the trail so watch for deer when on bicycle. I also wouldn't tow a bicycle trailer with your kids here.
Wide open paved trails, lush green grass, a deer just a few feet away, and people out walking their dogs and riding their bikes. What more could you ask for when have a lively crew of people enjoying it with you…? Can’t complain and can’t wait to spend another wonderful Spring day there with everybody!
I go bike riding here. Good view. I feel safe here. Good for jogging,running,biking. Its better than riding your bike on the streets, where you can get hit by a car.
