Also, this trail will lead you to the wonderful home of the Hill of Life, a steep uphill and downhill section of the trail that is loved by mountain bikers. It is the steepest section in Barton Creek Greenbelt with 300-foot ascent or descent in half a mile. While Scripture falls can be easily accessed through this trail too.
