Panther Canyon Nature Trail
Panther Canyon Trail begins near the headwaters of the Comal Springs which are fed by waters of the Edwards Aquifer emerging within the Balcones fault zone. The trail ascends the Balcones Escarpment into the Edwards Plateau under the shade of oaks, Ashe juniper, cedar elm and under-story trees including Mexican buckeye, kidneywood and Texas persimmon.
The trail crosses a dry creek bed of an ephemeral stream that only flows during or immediately after a rain. The trail covers over 49 acres and is home to many native plants and wildlife. The gently sloping pedestrian trail leads visitors approximately eight-tenths of a mile through the Balcones Escarpment. Hikers should allow at least 1.5 hours for the 1.6 mile round trip hike.

About the Arboretum
An arboretum is a place for the study, display and preservation of trees. Thanks to the foresight and devotion of members of the Guada Coma Garden Club, Landa Park was designated as an arboretum in 1982. In 2007, the arboretum was named after William and Dolores Schumann, in honor of their endless devotion to this botanical jewel. The Dolores and Bill Schumann Arboretum is home to over 80 species of trees making it one of the most diverse arboretums in Texas. This arboretum acts as a "living library" of trees, providing a classroom setting for the study of botany, arboriculture and other popular interest.
The Schumann Arboretum trees serve a variety of needs for the community including improving air quality, attracting birds and wildlife and enhancing the ecosystem.
Self-Guided Tours
The walking trail is 1.25 miles and open to the public. A printed copy of the Arboretum Guide may be picked up at the Parks Administrative Office at 110 Golf Course Road. Available below are downloadable PDF versions of the Arboretum Guide and Map.
