Faith On Wheels

Strap on your favorite hiking boots and get ready to be amazed at the Government Canyon State Natural Area, a tranquil park featuring multi-use trails perfect for the experienced to the beginner hiker. Offering more than 40 miles of trails where you can camp, attend a program or guided hike, geocache, picnic, take nature photos, and look for birds and other wildlife. Check out the only known dinosaur footprints on public land where scientists think that the Acro­can­thosaurus and Sauro­po­sei­don dinosaurs left the tracks nearly 110 million years ago.

Relish in a uniquely different performance space that has blossomed into a destination for people to come for theater, meet up with friends, have a drink, and enjoy live music at the Roxie Theatre Company. At the center of this immersive stage is a diamond of a venue, a complete flashback in time with a French circus vaudeville theme and flare beautifully constructed from aged bricks, marble, glass windows, and an elegantly flowing drop curtain. Around the sideshow venue from the past, you are invited to experience their interactive showroom connecting you once again with humanity both virtually online and back onstage.

Make a genuine connection that will last a lifetime as you venture through Animal World & Snake Farm Zoo, where you will experience hands-on encounters with some of your favorite furry, feathery, hairy, and scaly friends. You may even get a chance to hold some of these beautiful animals, if they are up to it, of course. As you stroll through the grounds you’ll see the Clawed Otters, Black Mambas, Blue Headed Macaws, Fennec Foxes, Grey Wolves, Jaguars, Spotted Hyenas, and snakes galore, all unique in their own ways. While you're at it, catch a perfect view of the bison and longhorn as you take a break under the shaded deck. Stop by Two Rivers Mining, Co., the Zoo’s very own gemstone mine for an incredible opportunity to pan for gemstones, fossils, crystals, and shark teeth!

Bring your dancing shoes to Travis Park this September and enjoy local and national jazz artists. Hosted by the San Antonio Parks Foundation. Jazz'SALive is a free jazz concert for all to enjoy.
