McKinney Roughs Nature Park

Characteristics of four Texas regions -- Post Oak Savannah, Blackland Prairie, East Texas Piney Woods, and Central Texas Plateau -- converge to create an unusual blend of natural resources at McKinney Roughs Nature Park. Located just 13 miles east of Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, McKinney Roughs's 1,100 acres include rolling box canyons, wildflower meadows, lazy river bends and a diverse biological population.
