Has anyone been before? A friend suggested I check it out but everything I pulled up online is talking more about river boats and random amusement park type attractions, not a trekking trail.
It has been years since I was through San Antonio but it is a city attraction with bookshops, coffee shops and touristy junk shops that sell t-shirts and mugs. River boat rides run up and down the canal type setting and some even serve meals. It is not rucksack adventure but a sort of running park through town.Has anyone been before?

It's definitely NOT for trekking..also doesn't really have amusement park-type attractions either. Just restaurants and shopping. I personally am not a big fan, but then again I guess I've never had a genuine riverwalk expereince with anyone from SA, so I might not know about the best parts. To me, it was like a mall with a river running though it. Not impressed. Not worth the drive. Nothing to do really (unless you like shopping).. my personal opinionHas anyone been before?

You can try checking out Alamo River. It's an RV campground but they got about 20 tent camping sites, too. Went there with my folks and family for our reunion last year, and it was pretty great. The restrooms and showers here were new and really clean when we stayed here. The downside is that it's quite a distance, but if your wife doesn't mind a bit of a walk going to the restrooms and showers, then this might suit you.My wife ,4 little boys and I are planning a trip to San Antonio. Need a good but affordable place to tent camp in the area. My wife must have clean showers available to agree to tent camp.
