About this walk

From Mission Concepción to Mission Espada — a half-day walk through 300 years of frontier Catholicism, irrigation engineering, and Coahuiltecan history.

Stops on the route

  1. 1
    Mission Concepción
    The best-preserved unrestored stone mission church in the country.
  2. 2
    Mission San José
    The 'Queen of the Missions' — and the trail's biggest surprise.
  3. 3
    Mission San Juan
    Smaller, quieter, and built around a still-working acequia.
  4. 4
    Mission Espada
    The southernmost mission, and the dam that fed all the others.

Ready when you are.
