About the Location
A Walk Through Time
Right next to Bosque Boulevard in Waco, Texas, Seley Park is a living piece of local history, having first welcomed visitors way back in 1918. As one of Waco's oldest neighborhood parks, this charming green space has been offering outdoor enjoyment for over a century.
Natural Beauty
We love how the paved walking trail meanders through the park, creating a wonderful path for your morning jog or an evening stroll. Regardless of whether you're getting your steps in or just walking your four-legged friend, this trail offers a peaceful escape from city life. The park's Victorian-style gazebo adds a touch of old-world charm that makes for a great photo spot or a quiet place to sit and watch the world go by.
Play & Exercise
If you've got little ones in tow, the playground area is designed with younger children in mind. It's not massive, but it's just right for keeping the kiddos entertained while you catch a breather in the nearby shade. Basketball enthusiasts can shoot some hoops at the basketball court - great for a friendly game or just practicing your jump shot.
For those trying to stay fit without a gym membership, the outdoor fitness station is available. You can work through a complete strength routine or mix in some calisthenics with your walk around the park. Combining this with a few laps on the walking track makes for a surprisingly effective workout routine.
Rest & Relaxation
The park offers several picnic tables scattered throughout, making it easy to enjoy lunch outdoors or gather with friends for a casual get-together. There's plenty of shade too, which is absolutely essential during those scorching Texas summers. And since the park never closes, you can enjoy this green oasis any time - whether you're an early bird catching the sunrise or looking for a peaceful spot for some evening contemplation.
Bring Your Pup
You'll be happy to know that Seley Park is pet-friendly, allowing leashed dogs around the grounds. The paved pathways make it particularly convenient for walking your dog without having to navigate rough terrain. Just remember to bring those cleanup bags!
