Sometimes, the most beautiful places are hiding right under our noses. Eagle Mountain Park is located within the city limits of Fort Worth, but its peaceful waterfront views and lush greenery are reminiscent of the most remote areas in Texas.

Located "where the prairie meets the timbers," Eagle Mountain Park in Fort Worth highlights all the best aspects of North Texas scenery. Spanning 400 acres, this hidden gem boasts five miles of well-maintained hiking trails that are still rugged enough to seem far away from city life.
