There are boat launches at Sugar Land Memorial Park and Cullinan Park, both which feature a scenic lake ideal for kayaking and canoeing.
Birding
Birding is a popular pastime in Texas, and Cullinan Park is a prime location for birdwatching enthusiasts. Plenty of birds and wildlife reside at this nature park, including most recently spotted, the green-tailed towhee, typically found in West Texas. For more information on birdwatching and wildlife in Cullinan Park, visit the Cullinan Park Conservancy.
Disc golf is similar in concept to traditional golf, except players use a disc, or Frisbee, in place of a ball and clubs. Golfers are responsible for supplying their own discs.
Exercise Stations
Outdoor exercise stations include elements for functional training, weight training and calisthenics.
We currently have exercise stations at Highlands Park, Park at the Levee, Settlers Way Park, a pull-up bar component at Sugar Land Memorial Park / Pawm Springs Dog Park and shaded exercise stations outside of Imperial Park Recreation Center.
Fishing
Fishing is a popular amenity in the City of Sugar Land, including at Memorial Park, Eldridge Park, Sugar Mill Park and Thomas L. James Park. All individuals over the age of 17 years must have a current Texas freshwater fishing license. Up to five fish may be taken home per person, per day. Learn more about fishing licenses and community fishing regulations through the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department (TPWD).
We have partnered with TPWD to receive fish stockings at select community fishing lakes within our parks.
With over 20 miles of trails, Sugar Land is a popular destination for walks alongside beautiful scenery. A variety of paved and natural trails are available at our parks. View our trail maps.
