Phil Hardberger Park

Open sunrise to sunset daily; both dog parks are also open sunrise to sunset.

Choose the east entrance at 13203 Blanco Road or west entrance at 8400 NW Military Highway based on the feature you want. The Land Bridge connects the two sides on foot, not by moving your parked car.

Use the official map before driving. Playgrounds, dog parks, Urban Ecology Center, trailheads, Land Bridge, and greenway connections are split between east and west.

Restrooms, portable toilets, fountains, and parking are available at developed nodes, not along every natural trail.

General park, trails, Land Bridge, Skywalk, playgrounds, dog parks, and picnic use are free; reservations and programs may charge.

Developed areas and the Land Bridge have accessible routes, while natural trails vary in width, slope, rock, roots, and weather impacts.

Dogs may use designated off-leash parks on both sides and must be leashed elsewhere. Separate small- and all-dog areas are provided.

Nature play, two playgrounds, Land Bridge wildlife crossings, Skywalk, short trails, picnics, and ecology programs suit families; there is no splash pad or pool.

This is primarily a driving or biking destination. Select east or west before routing and account for the long internal trail connection.

Treat Hardberger as a natural-area park, not a water-play destination. Stay on designated trails, carry water, avoid midday heat, and leave before sunset.

Check San Antonio's hourly heat index, lightning, severe-storm and heavy-rain alerts, flash-flood risk, air quality, drought restrictions, and current facility notices. Pavement, play equipment, limestone, and exposed trails become dangerously hot, while river and low trail access may flood quickly.
