Barron Park

A Green Escape in El Paso

Found on Rogers Hornsby Street, Barron Park spreads across 6.1 acres of greenery that offers a welcome break from city life without actually leaving town. This peaceful spot is popular with locals looking for a bit of nature within reach. The well-kept grounds give you plenty of room to stretch your legs, breathe fresh air, and just enjoy being outdoors.

Take a Stroll

One of the park's best features has to be its walking paths that meander through the landscape. Whether you're getting your morning steps in, training for a 5K, or just clearing your head with a casual walk, the trails are well-maintained. Just a heads-up though - after a good rain, some parts of the field can get a bit uneven with water collecting in spots, so watch your step!

Sports for Everyone

Feeling active? Barron Park has options. The basketball court invites pickup games and solo shooting practice, while the spacious soccer field is well-suited for everything from casual kickarounds to weekend matches.

For baseball fans, the park includes baseball facilities and a large grassy area suitable for impromptu games or just tossing a ball around with family.

Kid-Friendly Fun

Parents will appreciate the cute playground area where little ones can climb, slide, and burn off some energy. On those scorching El Paso summer days, parts of the playground offer welcome shade - a thoughtful touch that makes afternoon play more comfortable. The open field also makes a perfect spot for kite flying when the breeze picks up, bringing colorful specks to the sky above the park.

Bring Your Four-Legged Friends

Your furry companions are welcome at Barron Park, with plenty of space for them to explore. The thoughtfully placed pet waste stations with complimentary bags make it easy to be a responsible pet owner during your visit.

Good to Know

The park currently offers portable restrooms rather than permanent facilities. Some additional shade structures would certainly enhance the experience during warmer months, but the existing trees provide some relief from the sun.

Remember to respect park rules by properly disposing of your trash and leaving glass containers at home. The park welcomes visitors daily from 6AM to 10PM, giving you plenty of time to enjoy this neighborhood retreat.
