About the Location

Recreational Facilities

Situated in San Antonio, Al Forge Park offers a cozy outdoor retreat where you can stretch your legs and enjoy some quality time outside. It's nothing flashy, but this public space has just enough to keep you entertained for a few hours.

Sports enthusiasts will appreciate the basketball court and tennis courts where you can work up a sweat or challenge friends to a friendly match. What's cool about the tennis courts is their versatility - locals often bring different balls to play volleyball, basketball, or even soccer on these same courts.

If you're bringing little ones along, there's a simple playground area with four swings (two regular and two baby swings). It's pretty basic, but sometimes that's all kids need to have a blast.

Relaxation Areas

Need to catch your breath? Al Forge has you covered with benches and picnic tables scattered throughout the grounds. These spots are excellent for unwrapping a sandwich or simply sitting back with a good book.

There are also BBQ pits available if you're in the mood for some outdoor cooking. The picnic areas are well-maintained, making them ideal spots for family lunches or casual get-togethers with friends.

Trails and Open Space

A small circular walking path winds through the park - nothing ambitious, but fantastic for a short stroll or walking the dog. It's just enough to help you clear your mind without committing to a serious hike.

One of the nicest things about Al Forge is its calm atmosphere. It's usually pretty quiet here, offering a peaceful pocket of green space amid the urban surroundings.

Visitor Amenities

The park comes equipped with the basics - restroom facilities and water fountains to keep you comfortable during your visit. Just a heads-up though: the restrooms can be hit-or-miss, sometimes locked when you need them most.

Al Forge welcomes visitors daily from 5AM to 11PM, giving early birds and night owls alike plenty of time to enjoy the space.

General Information

This modest neighborhood park works best for shorter visits or when you have a specific activity in mind like shooting hoops or playing tennis. While it can't compete with San Antonio's larger parks in terms of size or fancy features, Al Forge provides a clean, pleasant space where nearby residents can get their daily dose of outdoor recreation without having to venture far from home.
