Terry Hershey Park
If you are looking for a spot with multiple trails to choose from, then Terry Hershey Park is just what you are looking for. Located on Memorial Drive, the park encompasses 496 acres and over 12 miles of hiking and biking trails. The trails allow for leashed pets and offer plenty of resting places, bathroom stops, and places to stop for a drink. The trails are also known for their beautiful flowers and the presence of various types of butterflies.
Sam Houston National Forest
If you are willing to travel a little further from home to find the best hiking trail, taking a 50-mile trip from downtown to the Sam Houston National Forest is definitely worth the adventure. The 163,000-acre forested area that spans three counties is as impressive in its beauty and history as it is in size.
The 128-mile Lone Star Hiking Trail in the forest takes you through picturesque timberlands and even small farm areas. The area is known for its rich history and evidence of historical occupation more than 12,000 years ago, making it both an interesting and beautiful place to visit.
