Confirmed from Southwest Williamson County Regional 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.
Areas for soccer, basketball, softball, football, track & tennis, plus a miniature train & a trail.
What runners say about Southwest Williamson County Regional Park
“This place needs funds and volunteering for painting and clean up, it looked a little sad to me but maybe because it's winter time.”
$2 per person. You can reserve a table but there are tables so you don’t have to pay to sit down. Nice trees for shade. There is a sandbox so bring plenty of buckets. Bathrooms are pretty clean. Nice parking. No vending machines. Overall good place to take the kiddies to get out the house on a hot day.
This is a very good trail. I was going around the park's perimeter, but I took a couple of side trails. It was more rugged and didn't have any signage. Be sure to have GPS or compass to know your way around.
A fantastic facility that has all the outdoor sports covered. Basketball, softball, football, soccer, lacrosse, tennis. Lots of field, lots of parking. A first class facility located in a fairly wooded and park like setting.
This is a large park with different areas for hikes, picnic and a splash pad. The Quarry splash entry fee is $2 per person. It's very well maintained. There were 20+ kids playing on the splash pad but it didn't feel too crowded. There a few benches near the splash pad and a shaded pavilion close by.
Trail conditions & character
“I know it's still under construction, and could receive a 5 star rating if there were restrooms by the train station.”
