About Haymarket Park
A Touch of Neighborhood Tranquility
Located on Comal Avenue in a residential pocket of New Braunfels, Haymarket Park offers a charming green retreat for locals. This unassuming community space offers a quiet spot when you want to get away without venturing too far from home. The park's quiet atmosphere makes it meant for those moments when you just want to unwind in peaceful surroundings.
Kid-Friendly Play Zone
If you've got little ones with energy to burn, you'll appreciate the well-equipped playground with its variety of climbing structures. The slides are thoughtfully positioned under shade coverage - a real blessing during those scorching Texas summer days!
The park also features swings that older kids will enjoy, however these don't have the same shade protection as the slides. For safety, the playground is cushioned with wood chips to soften any tumbles that might happen during enthusiastic play sessions.
Gather & Grill
The gazebo is an excellent spot for small gatherings, whether you're celebrating a birthday or just enjoying a weekend picnic. You'll discover several benches scattered around the grounds for relaxing or watching the kids play. Feeling hungry? Fire up one of the BBQ grills and enjoy an outdoor meal with family or friends.
These simple but functional amenities make Haymarket a nice spot for low-key social gatherings and family time.
A Touch of History
What you might not realize while visiting is that you're standing on potentially historic ground. Local lore suggests the area might have roots stretching back to the 18th century, possibly functioning as a marketplace where early German American settlers weighed and loaded agricultural products onto wagons. While you're tossing a frisbee or enjoying a sandwich, you're part of a continuing story that spans generations.
