Don Herring North Mitsubishi Plano- Enjoy the Outdoors in Plano This Spring

Now that it’s spring, you’re probably eager to get outside and enjoy Plano’s beautiful scenery. Here are a couple of ways to enjoy the outdoors.

Check Out Oak Point Park and Nature Preserve

At 800 acres, Oak Point Park and Nature Preserve is Plano’s largest park. It features 8 miles of paved trails and 5 miles of soft surface trails, which are open from sunrise to sunset. The soft surface trails wind their way along Rowlett Creek, which is full of white bass, catfish, and crappie, so if you enjoy fishing, bring your fishing license and equipment. You can also go kayaking, canoeing, and paddleboarding. 

A zipline course is available, giving thrilling views as you zip across the creek. The park serves as a sanctuary for kestrels, and visitors are reminded to be aware of bobcats and coyotes. 

Attend an Outdoor Concert

The only thing more fun than going to a concert is going to an outdoor concert. On weekends, you can enjoy live music in the Box Garden at Legacy Hall. This unique venue is constructed from reclaimed shipping containers and features picnic tables so you can hang out with all of your friends. You can even reserve a VIP lounge area staffed by your own cocktail server. 

Since the Box Garden is attached to Legacy Food Hall, you can sample various cuisines as you listen to music. Sports fans will also want to visit the Box Garden when it hosts viewing parties for the Rangers, Stars, and other local teams.

These are just two of many ways you can enjoy the outdoors in Plano. When you get outside, you’re sure to have a great time.
