Walk FAQ

When & where do you walk?

We walk every single week in downtown Austin on Wednesday at 6:30pm. Our meeting spot is Mañana Coffee at 111 Sandra Muraida Way — we gather outside on the right side of the building (facing the front doors).

Try to arrive early; 6:30 is peak traffic. Note there are multiple Mañana Coffee locations in town — make sure you’re at the downtown one.

Who can come to these walks?

Our walks are a celebration of femininity — a safe place to connect with others and move your body. If that sounds aligned for you, you’re invited. All ages 18-80+ welcome.

We strongly encourage the older & wiser to attend. Mingling across ages creates space for mentorship and the powerful sharing of intergenerational wisdom.

Where do I park?

See the Where to park section above for full details. In short: Seaholm Garage (free with validation, 2-minute walk), Whole Foods Garage (free customer parking, 10-minute walk), or metered street parking. Please don’t park in the EV charging spots along Electric Drive.

What if I am late?

We gather at 6:30pm but don’t start walking until 6:45-6:50 — so you probably won’t miss us if you’re a few minutes behind. If you arrive after we’ve left, you can usually catch up: we take our group photo on the pedestrian bridge, then start walking up the bridge. You’ll find us.

Do I need to RSVP? What do I need to bring?

Yes — RSVP is required.

Bring yourself just as you are, wear good walking shoes, water, and an open mind. ♥️

Can I come alone?

Yes — most people come alone, and leave with new connections. Bringing a friend is also totally welcome.

Can I bring my dog? What about a stroller?

Dogs and strollers are both welcome.

Dogs — please use your best judgement during hotter months; the pavement gets very hot. FYI, we pass an off-leash dog area that isn’t fenced in.

Strollers — the trail is stroller-friendly. Stairways and bridges have access ramps. Remind a walk leader when you arrive so we can point out the ramps for you.

Do you cancel for rain?

Nope — we walk rain or shine. You’re always responsible for your own safety, so make your decision to attend accordingly.

We continue to walk in rain, snow, wind, and heat. We don’t walk in tornadoes, active lightning, or ice. Watch Instagram for updates on questionable days — but in general, count on us walking despite rain in the forecast.

How long is the walk?

The walk is ~2 miles at conversation pace. Our meeting spot stays the same year-round; the route shifts slightly with the seasons.

March-November: up the pedestrian bridge, along the trail, across 1st Street bridge, back along the water. Up the stairs/ramps under the pedestrian bridge and back to our meeting spot.

November-March: up the pedestrian bridge, along the well-lit sidewalk on W Riverside Rd, across 1st Street bridge. Cross Cesar Chavez into downtown, walk along 2nd Street, behind the library, through Seaholm, and back to our meeting spot.

How fast do you walk?

Conversation pace. We always have faster walkers and slower walkers — when gaps form, we pause the front of the group to let the rest catch up.

Where can I learn more about the trail?

We walk on the Ann & Roy Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail, maintained by The Trail Conservancy. Learn more at thetrailconservancy.org.

Can kids come?

Our walks are organized for adults (18+), since the conversations and pacing are geared toward that age group. That said, it’s a public trail, so we can’t restrict anyone from joining — but it’s not common for kids to attend.
