Interested in skate boarding, blading or roller skating but have no place to go? Check out one of the Houston Parks and Recreation Department's six above ground skate parks.
All six skate parks have been built with skateboarders, in-line skaters and traditional roller skate enthusiasts in mind. Skating amenities may vary from park to park but include components like skate ramps, grind boxes, street spines and jump boxes to name a few.
All six skate parks are opened during normal park hours. To report a problem or concern in any park to the Houston Parks and Recreation Department, please use the convenient 311 e-mail form or direct your concerns to Ask Parks.
