The Brushy Creek YRE is the most nature-filled YRE in the Austin area, with no commercial or residential build up. It is the most scenic walk, with parks, lakes, creeks, bridges, and hills. It is abundant with wildlife of all descriptions and plants, trees, and flowers. It includes historic railroad tracks, historical markers and a meditation labyrinth. If you love nature, the three distances will be a memorable walk, you will want to repeat away from the noise and traffic of Austin, yet close by.
