Me and my children love dinosaurs and enjoyed every minute of it. The walking trail was fun and my kids loved looking for the hidden artifacts along the way. The staff was friendly and the gift shop was clean.

McKinney Roughs is an 1,100 acre nature park where characteristics of four ecosystems-- Post Oak Savannah, Blackland Prairie, East Texas Piney Woods, and a riparian zone-- converge to create an unusual blend of natural resources. Located just 13 miles east of Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, McKinney Roughs is home to hundreds of plant and animal species living within the rolling box canyons, wildflower meadows and lazy river bends of the Texas Colorado River. McKinney Roughs is a day use park where visitors can explore close to 18 miles of trails by foot or 12 miles on horseback (bring your own horse). The park offers many community programs as well. At the Visitors Center, pay your entrance fee and get the latest trail information. Peruse the gift shop and learn about the area's indigenous species through interactive exhibits and why the "river is the reason" for the presence and protection of this natural area.

I visited McKinney Roughs park and enjoyed a leadership retreat in their multi function room for a weekend. The common area is beautiful and the dorms are equipped with bunk beds and showers. The dorms are very clean and nice! We took advantage of the hiking trails and took a 3 mile round trip hike down to the Colorado River and back via a different trail. It was a great spot to visit and the stars were beautiful in the evening! This park is a hidden gem and the lady at the visitor center was very nice and friendly to me and also enjoyed to another hiker with his dog who came into the lobby area while was there. Dogs are allowed but must be on a leash. Some of the trails have steep grades so be sure to dress for hiking and be sure to bring water with you, especially in the summer!

We loved the experience there! We took our 4 yr old and one yr old grandkids. For the first time. Yes it was not a concreted manicured zoo. It is a privately run zoo. The owner opens it up to the public so the kids and kids at heart can enjoy seeing and interacting with a veriety of animals. They don't spend alot of money on landscaping because they use it to take care of the animals. They keep the prices affordable so kids from all walks of life can enjoy the exhibits. If you think things are not up to your standards the consider donating and making things better instead of criticizing and steering people away from a zoo that needs the public to support it. We enjoyed our experience and will be back a d plan to help by donating and helping where we can.
