Parks & Recreation

As the City of Lakes and Parks, Victoria is the caretaker of 12 lakes, 32 active and passive parks, and more than 400 acres of reserved land.

The City of Victoria’s Parks & Recreation Department offers a wide variety of recreation programs designed to improve the quality of life for all ages. The department also maintains the parks and trails system woven through Victoria. Through play, education, and events we grow individually and as a community.
