Heritage Duck Pond Park — Attraction in San Antonio

This is a nicely kept park with three Pokestops and Gym. Normally, early mornings, lunch time and evening will have folks there. It has a small skate park, trail that leads around the park but changes from concrete to dirt to gravel. Hills are steep and ducks are plentiful though DO NOT FEED THEM BREAD as this causes a deformity, there are vending machine for a quarter but don't always work. Playground and basketball court are present and used often. There are covered and uncovered Picnic Areas with accessible trash and recycle bins, a gazebo with party area can be reserved. Also, near the duck pillars is a little library station where anyone can borrow a book or add a book. Though the window has been busted the idea and joy remains the same to encourage reading. My children and I have enjoyed this park...

I have walked many times with grandkids. This park has helped me build Lots of memories I walked here when my husband died Learn to forgive the "if only" I walked many times alone Trying to find me I walked here when I had to heal a broken ankle then later a torn meniscus I have sat on the bench many times....but on 1 special evening Under the moon a sad moment was going to be exposed... I would lose someone N this will be my only regret in life. This had me understand the opposite emotion of "if only" I have seen the sun rise the moon set. I hear laughter and the ducks talk. The birds singing and the sounds of the water fountain are so relaxing. I hope to continue to go when I am old.....wait older. Cuz at 66 I am already old. So 5 stars is not the correct number to rate the park Park has no...

It’s a beautiful park, there’s a skatepark, a playground, of course there’s the duck and turtle pond… It’s amazing! The only reason why I gave it four stars is not because of the park itself, and this isn’t the parks’ fault, but it’s the people. If you’re bringing your kids here or are even coming alone, please pay attention to your surroundings. Pay attention to the adults, I brought my young cousins to the park a few weeks ago and a man came into the playground with a gun on his hip and frightened the kids (I know Texas is “Open Carry” but really?! The PLAYGROUND??!) Another time, I came alone, two fights broke out near the skate park and those usually don’t end well here.. just look at KSAT.

This is just for you to be mindful of and yes, it could happen anywhere,...
