Wickiup Overlook

Wickiup Overlook uses sculptural shade, limestone, granite, and elevated views toward Lackland, downtown, and the park's broad former-landfill landscape.

Large amenities are spread across multiple lots. Navigate to the splash pad and playground, skate park, dog park, disc golf, trail, or overlook rather than stopping at the first entrance.

Open daily 5:00 a.m.-11:00 p.m.; splash pads operate 9:00 a.m.-9:00 p.m. March-October, subject to weather and maintenance.

Restrooms, portable toilets, fountains, Wi-Fi, parking, and picnic facilities are provided at developed activity nodes, not across every trail segment.

General park, splash pads, playground, skate park, dog park, disc golf, trails, fitness equipment, and public art are free; events and reservations may charge.

Developed zones include accessible parking and routes, rubber play surfacing, paved trails, and seating; hills, disc golf, natural surfaces, and long distances vary.

The 1.5-acre dog park combines large and small dog use; dogs must be leashed elsewhere and kept out of splash and playground zones.

Splash pads, playground, zip line, terrain play, swings, trails, fitness challenges, and public art make this a full-day family destination when heat is managed.

Wickiup Overlook uses sculptural shade, limestone, granite, and elevated views toward Lackland, downtown, and the park's broad former-landfill landscape. Shade is limited in many major activity zones. Bring water, verify splash-pad status, check surface heat, and do not assume the playground, skate park, and fitness areas share one parking lot.

This is primarily a driving destination. Select the activity zone before routing and arrange pickup carefully because the park is large.
