From bgibbs: Visitors can now walk, run or ride bikes on creekside trails, protected and away from traffic, for 11 uninterrupted miles along the East and Southeast Sides.

The new extension means the southern portion of Salado Creek Greenway now stretches from Jack White Park at 3803 Seguin Rd. to Southeast Military Drive. The newly built trailhead is across from the future site of Arboretum San Antonio, located at 4226 Southeast Military Dr. The first half of the trail cuts through the former Pecan Valley Golf Club, its previously manicured 18-hole course now overgrown with grass, brush and small trees. Success! You're on the list.

Only a decade later after Pecan Valley’s closure, it’s hard to make out the former greens, sand traps and fairways. Grass and leafy plants partially cover a crumbling network of concrete paths with bridges built over the creek. The only structure I noticed was a limestone-walled building with a caved-in roof that someone seemed to have been using as a shelter.
