Bull Creek Park is a bouldering area in Texas, about 3.4 miles from the town of Greenshores. It sits among a cluster of climbing spots, with Upstream Wall just half a mile away and Ancient Tracks Boulder and Big Chief Boulder within a mile. The park's climbing is all bouldering, with three routes listed. They range from V3 to V5 on the V scale, and two of them share the same name: "Crack, Baby" and its extension. The extension is the hardest, at V5. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Austin run from highs around 80°F in April to about 83°F in October, while July and August average in the mid-90s. Mountain bikers can find the Barton Creek Greenbelt Trail about 8.6 miles away.
