The Shoal Creek Conservancy (www.shoalcreekconservancy.org) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established in 2013 with the mission to restore, protect, and enhance the ecological, social and cultural vibrancy of Shoal Creek for the people of Austin, Texas by engaging the public and partnering with the community. We accomplish this mission through activities that maintain and improve the Shoal Creek trail and greenway; enhance the public's enjoyment of the Creek; and restore the watershed. Shoal Creek is the city's oldest trail and extends for approximately four miles through the heart of Austin, Texas.Shoal Creek is an eleven-mile natural waterway in a 13 square mile watershed. The creek's headwaters spring from the ground in north Austin near Highway 183. The creek meanders through neighborhoods, skirts the campuses of St. Andrew's Episcopal School and Seton Hospital near 38th Street, borders the western edge of the University of Texas, travels through Pease Park and ribbons through downtown Austin. The mouth of Shoal Creek, and the southern terminus of the trail, is located at Lady Bird Lake. A 3.25 mile trail follows the creek from 38th Street to Lady Bird Lake, providing a pathway for cyclists, walkers and runners.
