Audobon Trail

Dogs Leashed

This wide concrete path around the Dog basin in the Willow Waterhole Greenway complex is typical of Harris County detention basin trails. Contrast this with the experience you have with the Keith Shanley Trail around the Westbury basin and you'll appreciate the value of the design in that area.

The Willow Waterhole Greenway is described as:

"Tucked away in the southwest Houston neighborhood of Westbury just south of Meyerland is a stunning gem of nature still relatively unknown to Houstonians. Willow Waterhole Greenway is a 300-plus-acre network of lakes, prairie, marsh, islands, native plants, wildlife, and park amenities. This unusual urban setting is designed to protect against Houston's inevitable flooding and to bring the community together for conservation, education, and recreation."
