Perez, Ignacio Ranch

The Ignacio Perez Rancho Jacal is located in the Medina River Natural Area and Greenway in southern Bexar County.  (15890 Highway 16, San Antonio, TX).  The Medina River Natural Area and Greenway is operated by the San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department.   The jacal is near the El Chaparral Trail and is visible from a distance as it is protected by a security fence.  The Perez Rancho was located on the Spanish Land Grant awarded to Lt. Colonel Ignacio Perez in 1808.  However, it is likely that Perez was occupying the lands prior to this time in the 1700s.
