Find a Park
Wylie is home to more than 700 acres of parkland and open space. In those parks, you’ll find 19 miles of trails, 23 playgrounds, 12 pavilions, soccer fields, baseball fields, football fields, a nine-hole disc golf course, a cricket pitch, and much more. Over the next few years, the Parks and Recreation Department plans to continue the implementation of the 2012 Trails Master Plan, which will increase the miles of trail in Wylie to better connect you with your community.

The 2019 Parks, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan was adopted by the City Council in 2020. It serves as a guide for appropriate park uses and for the location of parks within the city, and amenities within parks. The plan serves as a long-range vision (10-20 year timeframe) for future development, programming, and recreation opportunities. Issues typically addressed in parks master plans include planned park elements, natural and cultural resource management, and general design concerns. The plan is conceptual in nature and not intended to address detailed issues related to engineered site design or park operations. The plan is just one of many steps in the process that leads to the development of public parks.
