Good first step: Act Visit Gene Green All-Inclusive Park
Head to the park near U.S. 90 and Beltway 8 in East Houston. It's open every day from 6:30am to 9:30pm. Bring your family and check out the activities!
Gene Green All-Inclusive Park gives East Houston neighbors 250 acres of free outdoor fun. The park is built with sustainability at its heart — recycled materials, smart lighting, and water-conscious design. Everyone is welcome, and admission is always free.
The park spans 250 acres and features activities and state-of-the-art equipment for all ages and abilities. The grounds are designed to be all-inclusive, meaning everyone — regardless of physical ability — can join in the fun. The park is free to visit every day of the week.
Plan your visit by checking the park's hours: gates are open from 6:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. daily. Bring your own food and use the designated camp stoves or barbecue grills for cooking — open fires are not allowed. If you bring a pet, keep them leashed at all times unless you're in a designated dog park area, and always pick up after them. Leave glass bottles and containers at home. Vehicles must stay out of grass areas, trails, and sidewalks, and should be parked in designated lots — overnight parking is not permitted. If you're planning an event that involves alcohol, fireworks, or metal detectors, check with Harris County about obtaining a permit ahead of time.
Open daily, 6:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.

Free, accessible green space is a big deal in a city as large and busy as Houston. This park was designed so that people of all abilities can enjoy it together. On top of that, every design choice — from the lights to the way water moves through the park — was made to protect resources and reduce waste. It's a place that takes care of you and the environment at the same time.
