It's actually mostly paved or DG so would be doable even with a stroller. We walked from the red playground to the sky bridge and back which was 2 miles.

Whether walking/hiking/biking, be prepared to be captivated by your surroundings and also out of breath from all the movement. I can only imagine what this park is like in the summers with the hot sun scorching on you. According to some reviews, there is a tower that gives panoramic views of SA. Unfortunately I could not reach this tower as I was pressed for time. But i did get quite the workout as I trekked along the unpaved trails and soaked in the views of plants, trees, and the wildlife. Additionally, there's a covered pavilion and rest rooms at the parking area of the park. And plenty of parking. This is worth visiting when you're in the SA area; just make sure you've got proper footing and bugspray!

Locating where to find the start was a little tricky, but with the help of other locals, we spotted our way. The trial was approximately 1.9 miles one way and a mixture of paved, but more so natural, which we loved. A few areas of some steep step climbs, but nothing crazy. Lots of places for photo opps, and at this time of year, it was so pretty to see all the wildflowers blooming. At one point, we reached a high point in the trail, and it then dipped down, making us question....are we on the correct trail?! Our goal was to reach the tower with panoramic views of SA. But...just continue and follow the signage. We reached the tower and were elated. Took tons of pics and busted out some yoga moves : D Well worth the drive, and there are many other trails to explore , that I'll have to come back and check out. Came during the week- it was nice, the weekends might be very busy.

They have a wide walkway which is shared by bikes, runners and walkers and it's very nice and peaceful. At some points, there was a separate trail for dirt and mountain bikes as well. We saw so many deer! Nicely maintained and feels safe since there are people coming by every few minutes.

Orsinger County Park is one of the smaller parks in the city which is in the Shavano area. This park ideal for family events and celebrations. The pavilion in the park, which can be reserved online, holds up to 200 people. There is a huge children's playground and many picnic tables and grills Picnic throughout the park. Although, Orsinger does not have a sizable walking trail, it took me about thirty minutes or less to walk the whole area's circumference, the park is not very crowded on weekdays, and it made for a peaceful walk. I also observed park maintenance crews cleaning and working on the park grounds. Even the restrooms were clean with toilet paper and available soap. Orsinger is one of the great little parks that offer a slice of nature amid the bustling city.

This, one mid Spring morning, I decided to walk to and on the bridge with a friend. I will say, it was worth the walk. Truthfully, there is not much to see, but it does have some very nice spots to stop and look at native plants in the area. It also has some viewing boxes for sitting in the shade and observing fauna. I enjoyed the walk because it was different and it gave an alternative route to the park. I expected to see the Parkway (Wurzbach) from the bridge, but it's really not easy to see for safety reasons. However, one can see it was well planned and definitely, invites the visitor to look at the plants. During our walk, the area was a bit dry, as we have been going through a drought, but I'm sure it's spiffed up a bit with the recent rains. In any case, I do believe it is worth a visit.

It was pretty quiet and patrons are respectful of each other.

I love nature, but this was nuts! Needless to say, I lasted about 10 minutes. Neither my dog nor I walked. She got to see a full grown human being, running, ducking, jumping and eking all over the place and I got to take home three new unwanted bagworm pets.
