My friend and I enjoyed walking the overlook trail, including seeing the views of the lake. The weather was sunny and breezy and we got a good workout. I like that they don't allow dogs here to preserve their wildlife. We saw a couple of deer on our walk which was lovely. We look forward to our next visit to Eagle Mountain Park.

Eagle Mountain Park has great hiking trails along with some scenic views. One of the best features…read moreof this park is that it's pedestrian only and there are no bikes or dogs allowed. This makes for a great hiking experience. Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge lover of dogs, but I love that this park is working to preserve the nature, plus some of the trails are steep and it would be heinous to make your dog venture up and down some of these more aggressive slopes. Nonetheless, I still saw two people bring their dogs out... some people simply have no regard for guidelines to protect the nature and not create an undue burden on your dog. Sigh. This is truly one of the best places in DFW if you are serious about hiking. There is a 500 feet elevation gain on the trail by the lake and this makes for great views and an easy way to get your heart rate up. There is ample parking and admission to the park is free. The only downside I would mention is the only restroom facilities are two port-o-potties and they were disgusting. One was out of toilet paper and there are no sinks to wash up. I don't know why people feel the need to make a bad situation worse by urinating all over the seat and trashing the facilities. Other than that, Eagle Mountain Park is a great choice for a semi-challenging hike site in DFW. The views are also a great reward for your efforts!

We visited this park for the first time last week, and I was really impressed! The playground…read moreequipment is amazing! My little and I had so much fun swinging, climbing and running around. I love how it even has shade coverings and tables in certain spots. There is a walking path leading to the other side. I noticed Camp Gladiator having a session when we visited, I love CG. Also, the grass was freshly cut and trimmed and the trash bins were emptied. There is a restroom, it did have toilet paper when I visited, but it had a few spiders and bugs hanging out inside. It also doesn't have good ventilation, so it was super hot inside. There's a vent near the top but the wind didn't reach downward. No biggie, I'll just be prepared or else just hold it haha. Anyways, great park located in a beautiful area of Haslet!

There's white, yellow and monarch butterflies dancing everywhere as well as dragonflies in the spring. I also saw tons of cute lady bugs sprinkled everywhere and beautiful birds! Not to mention the nature is just singing here and the walk can just transport you into a peaceful state of mind. It has an area where people can fish, or take out their boat, and I always love to bring my pups out here. The full loop is about 15-20 minutes depending on how quickly you walk. Oh and you have to drive down a dirt path to get here (not too bad). I love coming here to clear my mind!

I think if I was next to the park, I probably wouldn't appreciate it. The main feature here is the disc golf course but it has a lot of trees along the way that would definitely make it a challenge. Otherwise, there are a few picnic tables here and there near the parking lot. There is no playground. It's a nice spot to bring lunch to eat outdoors but otherwise skip.

My husband and I came here for a weekend trek, and it's easily one of the best outdoor spots in North Texas. What I love most is the versatility. Whether you're looking for a smooth, paved stroll or want to get your boots a little dusty on the dirt hiking trails, they've got you covered. It's a great mix of elevation and flat stretches. It's a great spot for everyone. Pets are welcome (on leashes!), and there is a fantastic playground near the parking lot--perfect for kiddos who still have energy to burn after a hike. You'll see a beautiful variety of plants and likely some local wildlife. Just a heads-up: they do have warning signs posted for snakes and poison ivy, so definitely keep an eye on your surroundings while you explore. The parking lot is huge, but this place is popular! We arrived around 1:00 PM and it was nearly at capacity. We were lucky to snag a stall, but I'd definitely recommend arriving earlier in the morning if you want to avoid the parking hunt.
