Shop, Play, Hike or Bike
RECREATION
We won't say our weather is perfect all year long, but it's pretty close to it. With an annual average temperature of 67 degrees, we're never out of season. And with thirty-five parks, two rivers and 60 miles of Lake Waco shoreline, our recreational opportunities are endless. If you're into golf, take a swing at Waco's Cottonwood Creek Golf Course. For other forms of recreation, consider Cameron Park. Not only is it one of the best mountain bike parks in the state, nationally it ranks in the top 10 for disc golf.
On any given day, you'll see hikers, cyclists, joggers, fishermen, boaters and disc throwers enjoying our city treasure. For the less energetic, there's plenty to watch when the MCC Highlanders or Big 12 Baylor Bears compete.
DINING
From Tex-Mex tamales to Korean kimchee, Waco's cuisine is a daily celebration of our colorful culture. From plain to fancy, family-style to date-style; on the river, by the river, we serve up American, Mexican, Greek, French, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Thai, Italian, Cajun and good ol' Texas bar-b-que that can't be beat!
SHOPPING
Shopping is definitely a form of recreation in Waco! Scattered throughout the city you can find everything from unusual gifts and fine antiques to cowboy boots and hats. Located in historic downtown is our Entertainment District where world savvy shoppers will delight in finding treasures unique to our area.
ENTERTAINMENT
The Entertainment District comes alive at night with restaurants, trendy cafes, coffee houses, and performing arts. In June on Friday nights, free outdoor concerts in Indian Spring Park draw hundreds of locals and tourists toting blankets and coolers for evenings of music.
