Removed from Unnamed collection

Nestled in the heart of El Paso County, Ascarate Park stands as the largest public recreational haven, perfect for sports enthusiasts, picnic lovers, and anyone craving a bit of outdoor fun. Covering more than 400 acres, this park is a local treasure. At its core lies the Ascarate Golf Course, which sprawls across 280 acres and features an 18-hole, par 72 course alongside the charming Delta 9, a 9-hole executive course. The park's centerpiece, a picturesque 48-acre lake, invites visitors to enjoy its serene views with canoe and pedal boat rentals.

Beyond the greens and the lake, Ascarate Park is a playground for all ages. You can shoot some hoops, rally on the tennis courts, or try your hand at handball. For those who prefer team sports, the park offers five softball fields, a baseball field, and two soccer fields, all available for league play or practice. Just reach out to park personnel for details on rates and availability.

One of the park's highlights is its lakeside boardwalk, perfect for leisurely strolls where you can breathe in the fresh air and maybe even spot a local heron or two. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Ascarate Park is a must-visit spot for a day filled with recreation and relaxation.
