River Road Park

A Riverside Retreat

Tucked away within Amarillo's city limits, River Road Park stretches across 12.5 acres of serene landscape along a local waterway. It's a convenient spot when you need a breath of fresh air without venturing too far from home - a touch of nature within the city limits.

Take a Wander

One of the first things you'll notice are the winding pathways that meander through the park's lush greenery. No matter if you're in the mood for a brisk morning jog, a thoughtful afternoon walk, or just a casual stroll to clear your head, these trails accommodate all paces. The paths are suitable for all fitness levels, with pleasant views of the surrounding landscape.

Play Ball!

At the heart of River Road Park sits a well-kept baseball field, where the crack of the bat and cheers from impromptu audiences are common sounds on weekends. It hosts everything from organized league games to casual family matchups where no one really keeps score (though everyone secretly does).

Room to Breathe

Throughout the park, you'll discover plenty of open grassy areas ideal for throwing down a blanket and enjoying a picnic, catching up on that book you've been meaning to finish, or just cloud-watching on a lazy afternoon. The park's thoughtful layout offers both sun-soaked spots and shaded retreats, so you can find your perfect temperature zone no matter the season.

Kid-Friendly Fun

If you've got little ones in tow, the playground with its jungle gym equipment provides a safe space where kids can climb, slide, and burn off some energy while you take a well-deserved break nearby. The sounds of children's laughter here are practically part of the park's soundtrack.

Practical Comforts

No need to cut your park day short - public restrooms are available on-site, making it easy to extend your stay without discomfort. The designated picnic areas also make River Road Park an ideal spot for everything from family lunches to casual meetups with friends.

Community Spirit

Throughout the year, various events and activities take place at the park, bringing local residents together in this urban green space.
