Review:
Old No. 9 Trail is a mile and a half long biking and walking path that runs through the middle of Boerne. It was originally a dirt trail that was used by the Native Americans crossing the Texas Hill Country. Years later the San Antonio and Aransas Pass Railway Company (SA&AP) built the railroad alongside the old path. Old No. 9 Trail surprisingly got its name from the nearby Highway 9 rather than the railroad line. The now paved trail provides informative signs along the path as well as water fountains, a shady rest stop at the halfway point, and a water mister at the Esser Road trailhead to keep cool during hot Texas summers.
