It is family Friendly and is free to enter between 5:30 AM - 10 PM. The park offers walking trails, several ponds, a splash pad and playground, picnic areas, large covered event areas to rent, sports fields and courts (football, soccer, baseball, basketball, volleyball). There is always security personnel and clean restrooms, and plenty of parking. The park is well maintained and frequented by joggers, walkers, and those who come to just enjoy time outside. Kudos to Edinburg for making this place a great city park.

Edinburg Scenic Wetlands & World Birding Center is a separate place than the Edinburg Municipal…read morePark, but they are next to each other and trails lead from in to the other. The World Birding Center portion has it's own parking lot and there is a modest fee to enter. The walking trail around the pond is free. You can park at the municipal park and use the trails around the pond and/or the multiple trails that go through the park. Both places are well developed and beautifully designed. The trail around the pond in the Scenic Wetlands area has some beautiful views. There are many native plants such as mesquite, palo verde, Nepal, and other cacti for which I don't know the names. The morning I went to walk, I was admiring the nopal which was blooming profusely, as well as the ducks, herons, and other birds enjoying the water. The walking trail is pleasant, "paved" with a gravel type material, much is shaded by trees which have branches arching over the trail (that is a big plus if you go in the daytime). I didn't see a sign to indicate the length of the trail that goes around the pond, but it took only about 20 minutes to circle it. It took me longer because I kept stopping to take pictures. Once I circled the pond, I went through a portion of the municipal park where there are also some ponds, trees, playgrounds, picnic areas, ball fields, restrooms, etc. My wife and I used to take our children (when they were small) along with a loaf of bread to feed the ducks in the largest of the ponds at the park. I have not gone into the World Birding Center portion, but intend to do so in the near future.

It's right next to the dog park with plenty of shade, and places sit if you're just here to observe/ watch your kids. Live that they have something like this for kids to spend time outdoors.

They play in the practice fields for now which are right next to the future stadium. The place is beautiful and modern looking. They have made it look like what the major leagues stadiums would look like. The staff was very helpful since they beginning by offering rides from the parking lot to the practice fields. They also were very helpful in informing people about the team and is current situation in the season. This game was actually a playoff game and was the first in the teams history which sadly ended with a loss. My experience was great and will make sure to make it out to every possible game next season because of the great environment! I recommend for everyone to give this place a try since they will have a beautiful stadium next season and good quality soccer go watch!

Located on Chapin Road at the North Jackson intersection in Edinburg, this is a one mile long…read moreconcrete hiking / bicycling trail developed and maintained by the City of Edinburg. The trail does a loop around a retention pond. It would be prettier if some plants or trees were placed around the pond, but it is what it is. There is a nice, paved parking area which includes a few handicapped spaces. I think it is cool you can bring a friend who is wheelchair bound and walk them around the pond to give them some fresh air and scenery. The sunrise and sunsets can be beautiful reflecting on the water. The parking area is lined with Texas sagebrush bushes trimmed into rectangular shapes. There is also a shaded seating area at the corner. There are no bathrooms, but there is a porta potty. Because of the RGV Summer heat, few venture here mid-day. However, this trail comes alive with joggers in the evening or early morning. Some hikers bring dogs, and some of those dog owners do not pick up their dog's deposits. So, keep your eyes open, and watch your step.
