Confirmed from Bob Bryant Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
This 23-acre park features a playground, a nature trail, a river overlook & a pier, plus sports.
What runners say about Bob Bryant Park
“Such a great family park its very clean and offer fun for everyone”
“They've got beautiful gardens and even a community garden and great playing fields for different sports.”
I am a big fan of Fisherman's Park but Bob Bryant is definitely a Hidden Gem. It is tucked away behind a little suburban community in Bastrop, has a big Park and playground, a trail down to the water so it isn't for swimming at this part of the river, it is still very pretty.
A Wonderful place for a family day out! With a basketball Court, tennis court, soccer nets, and playground, you can find almost anything to do. The trail is a great walk for slight exercise and a view of the water.
I really love what they've done with the park. I used to walk my dogs there.Six years ago and this was the first time i've been back. They've got beautiful gardens and even a community garden and great playing fields for different sports. The community house with the picnic tables was perfect for a scout meeting.
Awesome green space. Movies in the park. Walking trails. Pavilion for rent. Fishing. 18-Hole disc golf course! This park really has everything!
