Activities include camping, backpacking, hiking, horseback riding on approximately 15 miles of day-use equestrian trails (bring your own horse), nature study, bird watching, boating or paddling on a 2,400-acre lake, water skiing, jet skiing, fishing, and lake swimming in a large, buoyed sandy area.

Note: Equestrians are only allowed to use the Big Brown Primitive Camping Trail until they reach the bridge. Riders are not allowed to cross the bridge until it is replaced. We apologize for any inconvenience.

In addition to campsites for tents and RVs, the park also has group sites.

Fairfield Lake is home to several species of fish. You can reel in a bass, catfish or perch from a boat or the fishing pier. Anglers from all over Texas join in tournaments or enjoy the open water in a canoe or kayak. Fishing is best in early spring and into the summer. Bring your fishing pole and stay awhile!
