Volunteers play a vital role in the conservation and stewardship of Texas’ natural and cultural resources. By getting involved today, you can help keep your state parks beautiful, accessible and fun for current and future generations.
Find Your Treasure
Geocaching is a modern-day treasure hunt! Use a GPS unit or your smartphone to find coordinates of a geocache nearby, then set out on your adventure. Texas State Parks provide a safe, beautiful place to explore while you locate your cache.
Bike Where You Like
Riders of every speed, style and social group can pedal across parks. You don’t have to be an expert, and you don’t have to go far from home. Choose the routes, surfaces and distances that fit your comfort zone.
