Comments: Even though you are very close to I-35, you'll feel like you are out in the woods. The view of St. Edward's University's main building from the Volcanic overlook is great - St. Ed's is built on top of a volcano, one of 12 that used to be in Travis County. The creek is pleasant, although I didn't see any springs, there are several of them in the park. I parked on St. Edward's Drive in front of the park - there are two trail entrances on St. Edward's Drive, 200 feet from eachother on opposite sides of Blunn Creek.
