Parkland Listing

The Austin Parks and Recreation Department oversees more than 16,682 acres of land containing 206 parks, 12 preserves, and 26 greenbelts. Parks are open for public use each day from 5am - to 10pm unless otherwise posted. Exceptions may be authorized by the director of the Parks and Recreation Department.

In order to make these resources easier to locate, the map (458kb PDF file) divides the City of Austin into four sections.

    The sections include:
  • Northeast (NE) parkland located north of Riverside Drive, east of Lamar Blvd. extending to the city limits.
  • Northwest (NW) parkland located north of Cesar Chavez, west of Lamar, extending to the city limits
  • Town Lake (TL) parkland located between Cesar Chavez and Riverside, east of Pleasant Valley, west of Lamar to city limits
  • South (S) parkland located South of Riverside Drive, extending to the city limits, excluding the Barton Creek Greenbelt.
