Fort Boggy State Park

Fort Boggy State Park spans 1,847 acres of woodland, rolling hills, meadows, and wetlands between the cities of Leona and Centerville.

In 1840, settlers constructed a fort with two blockhouses and eleven dwellings to protect themselves from American Indians near Boggy Creek.

The park maintains connections to the El Camino Real de los Tejas National Historic Trail, representing early trade routes through Texas territory.

Visitors can borrow fishing equipment through the Tackle Loaner Program, including rods, reels, and tackle boxes for catching bass and catfish.

The park's savannah grasslands contain the endangered Centerville brazos-mint among native species like little bluestem, Indiangrass, and purpletop.
