Mahncke Park & Westfort

Between Alamo Heights and Tobin Hill, 10 minutes from downtown along the Broadway corridor, is San Antonio’s most bikeable neighborhood. Bordering historic Fort Sam Houston, Mahncke Park and Westfort are nestled away from traffic – except during the annual free Siclovia bike festival that turns major city streets into a safe place for people to exercise and play. Home to Brackenridge Park, a perennial local favorite that encompasses the San Antonio Zoo and Japanese Tea Gardens, the newly expanded Witte Museum of natural history and the newly expanded San Antonio Botanical Gardens, Mahncke Park is a nature lover’s dream.
