There's swings for typical functioning people and people with special needs, even a swing for people in wheelchairs and another safety swing that a person can be strapped into. There's historical markers and an actual Howitzer cannon. There's also a very inviting gazebo, and artful metal benches and tables that showcase the aesthetic you'll see all over Shiner. I'd be proud to have one of these benches at my house. They even have cup holders on the benches, which is just a real nice touch. Throughout the park, there is paved walking and the park is surrounded by several businesses within walking distance. Next time we come, I hope we have more time so we can pick have a picnic here. I'm surprised I didn't see more people hanging out here. It was just so nice, and the park is cattycorner to the hotel so visitors can go hang out easily. I do wish they had a bbq pit here.

There is a beautiful overlook, and the grounds themselves are very well maintained. Only $5 per person for admission and leashed dogs are welcome. The Visitor Center has a few displays of relics that you won't want to miss! I do recommend wearing good shoes and carrying water if you are planning to walk down to the brewery. It's a bit steep in some places!

After paying a small fee to enter, we parked. The visitor's center has a small museum where you can learn all about the history of the park. It's a good way to kick things off.

You'll learn even more through this experience. I love these types of hikes: where you simultaneously learn and get a workout in.

It's got the river flowing right through it, and it's right by the university. My friends and I eschewed the tubes and just floated down ourselves. The river's got a nice current in this area that carries you right along. Plenty of bridges, steps and ladders. Great for kids, families, hot college girls...you get it. Looked like they do allow alcohol, but probably no glass. The river is man-made, and there's plenty of trees for shade. Definitely wanna check this out, if you've got a day to spend in SM.
