McKinney Roughs Nature Park … Where Texas Comes Together
McKinney Roughs is a 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 horseback (bring your own horse) or take part in one of the park’s many community programs. 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.
Directions
McKinney Roughs is located on Hwy 71, 13.2 miles east of Austin-Bergstrom International Airport on the westbound side. The facility's entrance is 8.4 miles west of Bastrop.
