Very large playground frame with things to climb on and slide down. There are also a half dozen swings for the ones who are interested in such inertia driven play. The open area is pretty smooth and mowed well. I did not notice any holes that might cause an ankle to twist. A number of picnic tables, some with grills and trash cans, are about the park.

Luckily for us we did have kids who were complaining of being tired by the midway point of it, so it is perfect for families. But if you are an avid hiker who hikes for miles and miles, this is not the spot. We did go to the beach to look around, but didn't get in as it is winter right now and was at 30-50 degree weather. It is a beautiful place, very clean and well kept. If you are coming in with family, this is perfect, but if you want to hike, this is not your spot.

As soon as I drove into the front entrance, I stopped in the office in order to print the day pass I purchased online yesterday. All three ladies were extremely friendly and helpful. They showed me the key highlights of the park on the map. Then I shopped their merchandise in the park store. The trails were very well maintained and laid out. Each path was clearly visible so as not to get lost or off the marked walkway. I even spent some time in one of the day use areas to read this month's issue of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine. What a way to finish enjoying such a wonderful park. Please check out!

Don't wait six years or longer to visit this beautiful city park. I eagerly parked and immediately jumped out of the vehicle in order to walk among the landscaped trails.

It is both park and botanical garden with a special area that is slowly growing roses. I'm not sure they grow in this part of the world, but it's pretty to imagine them here in full bloom. The park has a half mile walking trail and a pretty pergola that stands about a few picnic tables. The large open grass area would be ideal for a festival or fair of some sort. The park is located across from the Walmart Supercenter so there's plenty of overflow parking available. [Review 16024 overall - 212 in Texas - 1529 of 2021.]

In not wanting to be creepy about it, I decided to simply check-in on Yelp and not get out. Make sense?! From inside my vehicle, the grounds seemed well-kept and clean. Looks like pickle ball and horseshoes are offered and have dedicated areas for both those activities. Everyone also appeared to be enjoying themselves. If you have a family with progeny, I highly suggest making a day trip to this particular city park. You might enjoy yourself like everyone else seemed to be doing.

There is also a nice walking track that loops around half of the park. This gave me the opportunity to see that the park is in great condition and I spotted no litter today. I found easy street parking and there is also a small dedicated lot. [Review 16009 overall - 197 in Texas - 1514 of 2021.]

Quite a lot of activities for the kids to play on, use their imaginations and burn off some energy. It's standing on a soft mulch base so the less steady little ones won't scrape themselves when they inevitably fall down. And that's all good stuff! There is also a swing set, benches and picnic tables under a picnic shelter. The main feature for me was the walking track that looks two tenths of a mile around the park.

It's so nice to be surrounded by nature and to see such great views. Make sure to wear comfortable shoes and maybe bring a hiking stick if you have an issue with balance, since there are lots of uneven paths and steps. Overall, it was a really nice park and we walked the entire area. Will definitely visit again!

There's actual dinosaur tracks preserved in the rock at Dinosaur Valley State Park, and that just adds even more fun to the experience! We went for the day and the entrance fee was $8 per adult. They accept cards and cash at the Ranger Station. Prior to arriving I tried to buy tickets online, but I kept only seeing tickets for overnight camping. Nonetheless, we were still able to pay at the entrance and we were even able to get out and use the restroom facilities at the entrance. Once you pay your entrance fee, a ranger will give you a trail map. There is ample parking inside the park, so there are lots of possibilities on where to start your adventure. We started on the Pawluxy River trail and crossed over to the main track site where the dinosaur prints are very clear. The river crossing has slightly protruding rocks that you have to navigate on foot to get across the river. I wore hiking boots and I think this was ideal for the environment. From there we switched to the overlook trail where the elevation is 850 ft, so you get a great view of the whole Pawluxy River Valley. From there we descended to the Black-capped Vireo Trail, then crossed the Pawluxy River to make our way back to our car. While there's endless combinations of hikes you can take, ours took about 3 hours. Along the way there were lots of people. Mostly gathered at the river and at the tracks. The rest of the trails were actually very quiet and peaceful. In addition to hiking, there are other points of interest. There are dinosaur models, a swimming hole and of course multiple dinosaur track sites. Overall, Dinosaur Valley is a great state park with something for everyone!

We made a reservation online since it was around spring break and their Facebook site was showing they were selling out. We arrived around 8:45 and it wasn't crowded at all. We stopped in the Dino store for some water and the cashier gave us some tips on trails to check out. The water levels were higher than when they recommend visiting (summer). We brought water shoes with us and walked in the water in some of the shallow parts right next to million year old tracks! What an experience for our family. By the time we were leaving, the park was filling up quick. We drove around and checked out the playgrounds and camp sites. It would be awesome to camp out in the park. It gave us ideas for our next trip.

In my opinion, there could have been more ride operators. Even though some of the rides were running, we had to wait for operators to run another ride, then switch to the one my kid wanted to ride. The train was cute. It smelled like gas exhaust the whole way, but it has a nice big track, and they take them around twice. The putt putt could have used a bit of shade on the yellow course, but it was nice that there were 3 courses. Too bad everyone wanted to play the shady course, so we all had to wait for big parties to finish between holes. This park could use some updating but it's great for small children.

There's a bridge there's some hiking area there's some asphalt for a riding little tricycles for scooters. They have water fountain picnic tables and even a barbecue. What they didn't do was shade the bench areas. There's no place to sit in the shade if you can't slide on the slides. Trying to watch my granddaughter play but I would have to walk too far away to get shade so that's going to stop me from coming on warm days. There are a few walkers out here. So it's a good place to walk for your health. I'm thinking my daughter will bring the grandkids out here. But I'll only come if it's fairly cool outside.

Tons of big gorgeous trees and plenty plush, green lawns for frolicking, a little babbling stream with a walking trail bridge that goes over it. Like a storybook, for real. Rickel Park has 1.5 miles of walking and jogging trails, a picnic area with tables, a couple pavilions, and a great playground that's relatively shaded. There's nothing particularly novel or modern going on here, but this park actually transports you out of suburbia for a second and into the woods. Especially if it's not too crowded. With the right weather it's honestly so peaceful and enjoyable and feels like you're on a little trip. Bring a picnic and play and hike and enjoy.
