Abilene State Park sits on the shady banks of Elm Creek and Lake Abilene in central Texas, featuring large trees and stone structures built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s. The 529-acre park offers a historic swimming pool, fishing on Lake Abilene and Buffalo Wallow Pond, and over five miles of horse trails with additional hiking paths. Campsites include tent sites, RV hookups, and screened shelters, with canoe and kayak rentals available via vending machines.
