Parks & Recreation

With over 300 acres of park land for you to recreate in, San Marcos really lives up to its nickname “San Parkos." With 44 parks, seven facilities and two aquatic complexes San Marcos is the perfect destination/location to recreate, gather, and enjoy the city. The city’s extensive and growing 72 mile trail network is great for hiking, biking, running and equestrian use.
