Ward Spring Trail guides hikers through the foothills of the Chisos Mountains. The trail leads to a spring at the base of a volcanic dike. This spring used to be the water source for Homer Wilson Ranch's cattle. It was piped to a stock tank just north of the trail's parking lot. Pieces of pipe still remain today. After rainfall, the spring may create shallow pools of water or be entirely dry.

The trail has a significant amount of sun exposure and is recommended to be hiked in the cooler months.
