About this adventure
Situated on Spring Creek in Humble just north of Houston, Jesse H. Jones Park spans over 312 acres of preserved coastal bayous and majestic ancient cypress groves. Families can stroll along 8 miles of paved and crushed-granite trails, including a tranquil boardwalk looping through swamp ecosystems and leading to white sandy beaches along Spring Creek. The park is home to the Akokisa-Hermitage Pioneer Village, an authentic re-creation of an 1830s Texas homestead with historic log cabins, blacksmith shops, and live weekend demonstrations. Admission is completely free.
