The Johnson Creek Greenbelt in northwest Austin along the MoPac Expressway. A concrete hike-and-bike trail runs the length of the linear park, with highway overpasses soaring overhead. Bridges and tunnels dot the route, and the latter can be a little unnerving especially when traveling alone. The trail stretches from its trailhead on Veterans Drive, which has parking and restrooms, and stretches north to Enfield Road, which lies across the street from the West Enfield Neighborhood Park.
At the southern end, the trail splits into different spurs connecting to different destinations including Austin High School, the Lance Armstrong Bikeway, Lady Bird (Town) Lake, and the Ann and Roy Butler Hike & Bike Trail.
Parking for this trail can be found on the southern end, at Veterans Drive and Atlanta Street. The trail entrance in the area typically called 'The Rock' near Austin High School, where there are water fountains, limestone stretching blocks and native plantings.
