Had a fun time with the kids, there are two small lakes next to each other but not the best if you want to catch fish, theres a lot of turtles , aside from that the splash pad and sand box are kept clean, entertaining center is great for the kids as well and my daughter loved the monarch section .

I love this place... Im a grown man so Im not there to enjoy the splash pad but I am there to walk my doggo and Fischer Park had everything needed for a good walk. There is some coverage, some grass, some wild flowers, a few off the beaten path spots, drinking fountains, and garbage cans. For families out is great, rent a pavilion , take the kids to the splash pad or playground and enjoy. All super close to everything but far enough away to feel serine and separate.

Headed there for a Gardening event in the Butterfly Sanctuary. Event happens every 1st Saturday of the month. Very kid Friendly. Took the family to the event. And everybody loved it and felt better after putting some time and effort to put some hard work back into this wonderful Earth. Kiddos are really excited to go back. Definitely would suggest to participate every now and then. Playground: The playground is a nice standard playground, just wish there was more coverage over the playground. There are not many trees, since the park is built in the top of a hill. So during the summer the jungle gyms themselves start to get really hot.

This is a great place to have fun and be outside with kids. There is plenty of space to run around and a nice little pond to fish in! My kids really enjoyed the gigantic sandbox as well. I strongly recommend this park to anyone in new braunfels.

This is a great park. Two lakes to stroll around, or just sit and relax. All of the walking trails are concrete so they are great for young and old alike.

Spent about 4 hours here. The playground was so much fun for my kids, they really enjoyed the splash pad. The walking part of this park is fantastic. The ONLY request I would have is the monarch section had two large snake skins laying on the ground. Some cleanup would be nice. Yes, weeds are for the butterflies, but safety should always come first.

The splash pad is super fun but there is no shade and they make you pay for picnic tables. Their playground is kind of scary to me as a parent, it definitely isnt safe for littler children. I like that there is a button to turn the water on by the frog toy and it turns itself off automatically to save water in case nobody is playing on it.

Best place to go for a birthday parti with your friends. The water park is perfect for little kids even for adults. There is also two extra parks near the water park. The parks have a climbing area, babe area, and 4 sections of different activities. There are also 6 pavilions for your family to an entire birthday party. If you didnt come for the water park or the other two parks then you could go on a walk. There is a path for you to follow to visit other biutifull places.

This is definitely a five-star Park. I wish there was more parking and the water park was a little bit bigger. Because there are so many people that come here because this park is amazing. New Braunfels really took some time and consideration when they designed this Park. Theres so many things to do here. You have hiking paths that you can go on. They even have a pond that you can go fishing and rent canoes for only $5 an hour per person. There is even a little butterfly garden. They even have a center where your kids can go and learn about all the different things outdoors. There is even a little miniature water park so call. It has a huge bucket that dumps on you. I definitely recommend this place to everyone. If you come to you Braunfels you must bring your kids to this park even if you dont have kids come. It has plenty of restrooms and water fountains and plenty of shade.

This is one of my favorite parks in New Braunfels. There are many walking trails and ponds throughout the park. My favorite part is the butterfly garden, there is seating to just sit there and meditate, its really quite peaceful. There are also spring and summer programs offered by the staff here and a cute little gift shop with the usual shirts, hats, water bottles, maps Etc.
