Towne Lake Park Adds Water, Trails, and Disc Golf in Central McKinney

Towne Lake Park sits in central McKinney at 1405 Wilson Creek Parkway, built around a small city lake. The city's trail page lists the Towne Lake Park Loop as a 1.1-mile hard-surface path circling the water in a neighborhood-park setting.

There is more than a walk here. McKinney's disc golf page places an 18-basket course inside Towne Lake Park, so the same trip can mix a lakeside loop with a round of disc golf.

This is the kind of park that becomes routine for people nearby: a quick walk, a round with friends, or a small water view close to town. Check McKinney's official pages for hours, course details, and any current park work.
