Outside of work, you can likely find her curled up on with a hot cup of coffee, practicing yoga, baking, or exploring the beautiful Lone Star State (in particular, the vast and mystical West Texas desert).
I talk a lot about state parks in Texas (and for good reason!), but we have plenty of awesome city parks, too. One of my favorites is San Antonio’s Pearsall Park because it’s spacious and offers a little bit of everything, from a zipline to a Ninja-inspired obstacle course to a regular lineup of food trucks. It’s one of the best city parks in Texas, and I can’t wait for you to visit.
When it comes to city parks in Texas, it's hard to beat San Antonio's Pearsall Park. Spanning over 500 acres, this outdoor oasis is a haven for family fun, offering everything from a playground to fitness equipment to an event pavilion.
One of the park's main attractions is its Ninja-inspired obstacle course with climbing walls and other challenges that test strength, agility, and balance.
Pearsall Park doesn't just cater to kids (although they are VIPs here!). You'll also see a 40-yard sprint timer, pull-up bars, traveling rings, and other fitness equipment perfect for getting your workout in.
A 5K running and walking trail with multiple routes weaves through the park, as well. It's the only public park in the city with trails that don't cross city streets!
Visit the City of San Antonio website for more information about Pearsall Park, including current hours of operation.
Have you ever visited Pearsall Park? If so, do you think it’s one of the best city parks in Texas? We’d love to hear all about your experience in the comments, and if you need a place to stay in San Antonio, I highly recommend the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country Resort & Spa because it has its very own water park!
