Friedrich Wilderness Park lies among the hills along the
edge of the Balcones Escarpment.
If you climb the hills of the Main Loop trail, you will find nice views
from the ridge tops. Whether it is a sunny day or clear night, the hills
are refreshing. The forest on the north side of the central ridge in
the park can be a few degrees cooler than San Antonio. |

Friedrich park actually has water.Although the San Antonio area just receives 20 inches of rain a year, the windmill on the left provides a permanent water source for wildlife.After, Friedrich springs fills the creek by the main loop trail and creates this waterfall. Usually this is a dry creek bed. |
