Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next Bonham adventure.
Hike in the hills or get on the water at this lakeside getaway.
Bonham State Park has 261 acres of sloping hills and lush woodlands to explore, all set around a 65-acre lake. Head down to the water to swim and fish (no permits required), or rent a kayak, canoe, or paddleboat and take in the views from the water. Ffour trails are open to hikers and bikers, including the challenging Bois d'Arc Trail, which links several Civilian Conservation Corps heritage sites. For an overnight stay, pitch your tent or park your RV at Hackberry Hollow Campground, where 21 sites all have easy access to both the trails and the lakeside.
Summer (June through August) is the most popular time to visit Bonham State Park and the best time for swimming and water sports, but the small park rarely gets over-crowded. Hiking is possible year-round—visit in springtime when wildflowers blaze across the prairies or in fall, when autumn leaves blanket the forest floor. Trails can get muddy after rainfall, so dress accordingly.
