7 Trails in San Antonio to Take Your Dog Hiking

The best part about San Antonio hiking with your dog is that you get to explore this beautiful city we call home. Hiking with your dogs is a great idea for more than exercise too! Dogs love to explore and learn new things. That includes sniffing out new places and learning about different areas. You can exercise your dogs body and mind at the same time here in San Antonio with these hiking trails.

Most of these trails come highly recommended from dog owners and dogs alike. They all offer something a little different and unique but one thing is the same: you should always keep your pet on a leash for safety and clean up after yourselves.
