San Angelo State Park

San Angelo State Park is a state park in Tom Green County featuring rolling hills, multiple lakes, and a variety of wildlife. Trails wind through native plants and natural rock formations across the land.

The park was established in 1995 to preserve land that indigenous peoples once inhabited. Archaeological finds throughout the area reveal evidence of their past settlement and life there.

Educational programs throughout the park teach visitors about the plants and animals that live in central Texas. Guided tours help people understand how these ecosystems work and why they matter to the region.

The park has multiple camping areas for tents and RVs plus fishing spots at different lakes. Bring plenty of water and wear suitable clothing when exploring trails, especially during hot weather.

The park protects a section of the North Concho River where visitors can see native Texas longhorns and bison living in their natural environment. These animals are living reminders of the original Texas landscape and plains heritage.
