 The beaver pond at Copperfield |
Description: Formerly an undeveloped greenbelt from Yager Lane to Shropshire Blvd, neighbors have worked with the city to create trails. The greenbelt will eventually connect to the Walnut Creek greenbelt.
Copperfield Beautification Team officially signed a park adoption contract in October, 2006, and kicked things off with a huge clean up event. So far the group has built more than a mile of trails.Recent photos and descriptions of workdays, including trail blazing, mulch-a-thon, brush and trash removal and more are available on the Copperfields Nature Trails website
The Copperfields Nature Trail bosts two small, spring-fed ponds, an existing one-mile trail and lots of possibilities for additional hike and bike trails. The park is located in a rapidly developing area of northeast Austin.
In the Summer of 2007, the group received an Austin Parks Foundation grant to fund improvements to the Blakeney entrance of the greenbelt. Their goal was to create an inviting bike and pedestrian entrance to the pond and greenbelt trail. The project extended the sidewalk and added two park benches overlooking the pond, installed decorative boulders and an entrance sign, removed invasive plants and brush, and reseeded the area with native plants and wildflowers. They have made remarkable transformation and made this an enjoyable public space.
