About the Location

Recreational Facilities

Wandering through Stephen F. Austin Park, you'll discover a network of walking paths that meander peacefully through the grounds. These trails are great for your morning jog, a thoughtful afternoon stroll, or simply getting those daily steps in. The paths are well-maintained and offer a lovely way to experience the park's natural setting.

Kids will light up at the sight of the recently upgraded playground area. The modern equipment caters to children of all ages, so both your toddler and your grade-schooler can find something to enjoy. One of the coolest additions has to be the musical elements next to the play area - where little ones can create tunes while taking a break from climbing and swinging.

Park Amenities

Texas heat can be no joke, which is why the shaded areas around the park are such a blessing. While you might want to bring an umbrella on the scorchiest summer days (a few more shady spots wouldn't hurt!), there are decent options for escaping the sun. The scattered picnic tables make this a wonderful spot to enjoy a casual lunch, weekend breakfast, or even a simple coffee while watching the world go by.

Need some space to throw a frisbee or kick a ball around? The large open fields provide plenty of space. These generous grassy areas give you plenty of room to spread out, whether you're organizing an impromptu soccer game, practicing yoga, or just stretching out on a blanket with a good book.

Neighborhood Setting

Located in a safe, pleasant Amarillo neighborhood, Stephen F. Austin Park is well-integrated into the surrounding area. Its convenient location makes it easy to access whether you're a local or just passing through town.

Dogs are welcome here, making it a nice spot for both of you to get some exercise. You'll see everything from everyday dog walks to birthday parties and family picnics taking place in this versatile green space.
