Harker Heights Community Park — Attraction in Harker Heights

I live in walking distance of this park. I love it. The play ground for the kids is really nice. There is a picnic area with public restrooms and water fountain. Plenty of parking. A bat hitting cage. I big open field next to that. Two large baseball diamonds and dough out. Big lights that light up the entire field. A walking and running track with mile markers. I believe it is one mile all the way around. There are two hills for a nice challenge. All paved walking area. There is a smaller dirt track that most people don’t see, but it is over near the picnic tables where the play ground is. Big beautiful trees for shade at the play ground. They even have stations for doggie bags to pick up after your dog and garbage cans every quarter mile for your confidence. They have people that are there every morning doing maintenance on the grounds and keeping it clean. I am very lucky to live in Knights Ridge a quarter mile...

I cut it short which wasn't super easy to do but workable Everyone here is respectful and keeps to themself. As a single woman I never worry or have had an issue. Only thing I could really for is a splash pad, maybe not here necessarily but somewhere. It would be a great addition...

The baseball/softball fields are well maintained and the grass is always cut. They have a basic playground for the kids and some small picnic tables. There is ample parking provided to meet what needs you may have and wheelchair accessible relatively easily. The restrooms by the playground could use some better upkeep, along with more water stations. The walking/running path is starting to crack in some areas quite a bit and could use some repairs, but generally in decent shape. I wouldn't recommend getting off into the grass due to fire ants. The park could also use an area to grill with more picnic tables for parties, or...
