Brazos River Loop

Location: The trail begins at the entrance to Cameron Park on University Parks Dr.

Beginning at the Parking lot on the edge of the park:

• Follow the sidewalk East, towards I-35
• Once you get to the suspension bridge, cross over the river on the bridge
• Take a right once you cross the bridge and follow the sidewalk as it curves under the bridge and heads West
• Follow the sidewalk until you make it to Herring Ave Bridge.
• Cross Over the river on the bridge on the pedestrian walkway on the East side of the bridge
• Once you cross the bridge take the sidewalk on your left as it curves its way down the hill to University Parks Dr.
• Once you make it down the hill, head West until you go under the Herring Ave. bridge that you just ran across
• Get on the sidewalk and follow the right hand branch (don't cross the stream that feeds into the Brazos)
• Follow that sidewalk as it takes you back to the parking lot.


Length: 4 miles

Type: Loop

Dangers to Avoid: This is a very safe route. However, there is one road crossing in Cameron Park. There are a lot of people out in these areas in the daytime.

Things to look for:

• The Waco Suspension Bridge
• Tortilla tossing targets from the bridge
  
  

Environment: The trail itself is all concrete, except for the Suspension Bridge which is wooden, and the walkway on the Herring Ave. bridge, which seems to be a plastic composite of some kind.
