Usher In the Spring at Memorial Park

The sun shines year-round at Houston's Memorial Park, but with the arrival of spring just on the horizon, it might shine a little bit brighter. Take full advantage of the springtime sunshine at this sprawling city park, which boasts more than 30 miles of hiking trails—not to mention ample space for biking, picnicking, and lounging on the grass.

On a warm, sunny day, bring your bike along and conquer the trails in the southwest part of Memorial Park, which are popular among mountain bikers. Play a round of golf at the Memorial Park Golf Course, an 18-hole course spread out across 250 acres. You can book a tee in advance. Or head to the Memorial Park Fitness Center, where you can splash into the pool or pump some iron in the weight room. If you have little ones in tow, stop at the Vale-Asche Foundation Playground, a spot that's accessible to children of all abilities.
