Abilene State Park
Abilene State Park, southwest of Abilene, in Taylor County, is among a low range of hills called the Callahan Divide, in the extreme western portion of North Central Texas. Original park construction was done by the Civilian Conservation Corps (C.C.C.) in the early 1930’s. A portion of the official Texas longhorn herd and one buffalo are located on site. Comanches frequented what is now the park, using the groves of native pecan trees as campgrounds, much like the present park’s picnic area. Abilene State Park Activities: The park offers camping, hiking, nature study, swimming (summer), picnicking, fishing in Buffalo Wallow Pond in the park and nearby Lake Abilene, and biking and walking on park roads. Interpretive Programs: Held both on and off site. Nature trail tours are given upon request. Call the park for more information.
