Stone Oak Park







Are you an active individual or family who is new to the Stone Oak area? Fortunately for you Stone Oak has an amazing public park that is accommodating to any member of the family. The park is located near Canyon Ridge Elementary off 281 on Stone Oak Parkway. 



The park features hiking trails, covered picnic areas, an open air amphitheater, playscape and complimentary doggie bags. There's also informational workout stations with built in equipmet. Don't forget to check out the bear cave too. Be aware that there is a north and a south entrance located on each side of Stone Oak Parkway.

The north entrance features a 1 mile trail where you can enjoy some of the south Texas wildlife in the middle of stone oak. As you begin the north trail you will pass by the bear cave and walk into a great open area full of deer, cotton tail rabbits and amazing flowers. 



The South entrance features the playscape, amphitheater and then goes into a 1.2 mile trail. This trail is a lot more developed than the North side of the park and is adjacent to some of the homes in the Villages of Stone Oak. You will also get to travel through an underpass that was built at the end of the trail under Evans Rd that just makes this experience unique.
You will be able to enjoy a variety of plants and wildlife as you walk through the trails as well as get to meet and great local residents and their pets.  The park hours are from 7am to sunset and it is open seven days a week. It is a great park for the whole family to enjoy and take in the nature around!
