Best Day Hike

Barton Creek Greenbelt

It'll take you from Barton Springs to the Barton Creek Mall, so pick your favorite post-hike activity (a swim or a movie?), and you'll know at which end to begin. Bring a friend for some meandering conversation, or just let yourself zone out – either way you'll get some exercise without really trying, and you'll manage to get somewhere without really having to go anywhere.
