Buffalo Run Park is a beautiful place to be. Whether you are here looking for inner peace after a…read morelong work day or someone getting their long run in, this is the place to be. I was here at Buffalo Run Park here in Missouri City for an annual running endurance event for charity called Snowdrop 55 hour ultra. 55 hours to do a 0.69 mile loop around the lake. The park itself is amazing and while you can see parts of the lake at different locations, the best ones were on the bridge. During my event here, I saw the sunset over the lake and it was amazing. I saw the sunrise too but on a different area of the park. The park itself was a slice of Missouri city, far away enough from Houston and it was cool just to be here. Half of the park is a picnic ground with a little parking area. The other half is a large asphalt paved path around a large lake. It's quite a nice place to be in, although the weather was okay during the day and wicked cold at night. I guess my local Houston friend was right when she said Texas weather in late December is very bipolar. Can't make up its mind. I assumed it was going to be warmer but turns out, nope. For the most part though, my time at Buffalo Run Park was very cool and glad to be able to come. I arrived at the parking area and walked over to the asphalt trail. The path around the loop was scenic, clear of debris, and you can see snippets of the lake on one side and a lot on the other side. It was definitely worth it though. I highly recommend coming to Buffalo Run Park when you are in the area. It's peaceful and quieter than you think. You'll get a lot of peace here for sure. The overall experience here at Buffalo Run Park was very nice and pleasant. The weather was pleasant during the day with no rain and cloudy / clear skies and a lot of sunshine, but while I was here, the temperatures dipped into the mid 30's F and made it increasingly cold and difficult. I enjoyed the local flora and the trees in the park itself. I'm not sure if people actually go swimming in the lake or fishing, but I'm just a visitor. My time here was spent doing multiple laps around the asphalt lake path that circumvented the lake with many other like minded people and individuals. The bridge overlooking the lake was my favorite part of the loop because it was incredibly beautiful and so awesome to watch the sunset and sunrise. There were some benches along the loop for anyone and everyone who wanted to sit down and chill after walking or running the lakeside path. For the most part though, it was great to be here. I saw this little building that jutted out into the lake. Not sure what that was used for, but just felt like it was something to look at while I was here. I didn't see much of wildlife creeping on the lakefront path, which is a good thing. Only things I saw were local area birds flying overhead from time to time. And so, if you enjoy nature and the peace and quiet, consider coming out here to Buffalo Run park in Missouri city, Texas. Possibly the best time of your life. Buffalo Run Park is located in Missouri City, Texas. It's physically located at 1122 Buffalo Run Blvd in the heart of the city. It's a community park for anyone and everyone, so no admission fees charged. Completely free, which suits me just fine. As far as parking goes, there's 2 parking lots that services the park. The main one that connects you to the picnic area and the boat launch. And the smaller one that's right on Buffalo Run, near the gas station. Best bet would Be to have your own car or rent one. Or even better yet, find local Houston friends and they can give you a ride. Not sure if there is regional public transportation here to get you to Buffalo run Park from anywhere in Houston, but there's always the Internet to help you get your way down here. There's always Uber or Lyft if you require their services. This community park is always in good shape and maintained by the local Park Authority. Maybe one of these years I will come back and get a glimpse at that observatory that they have installed on the lake. Might just be the best viewing station to see the sunset or sunrise over the lake. Maybe not in December but who knows. 5.0 stars for the overall experience. Support local! A+
