McKinney, Texas (July 29, 2025) – The City of McKinney Parks and Recreation Department is proud to unveil a new tool to help residents and visitors make the most of the city's outdoor spaces. The new Parks & Trails Directory is an interactive, mobile-friendly guide to more than 50 parks and 80+ miles of scenic trails.

"McKinney is known for its commitment to quality of life, and our parks and trails are a big part of what makes this community special," said Amy Kinkade, Parks and Recreation Director.
