Benbrook Lake, Texas

Benbrook Lake is located in the scenic open countryside of rolling hills and prairie meadows and offers some of the finest public parks in or near Fort Worth, Texas. Picnicking, camping, fishing, hunting, boating, birdwatching, and hiking and horseback riding trails, are just the beginning of the activities available in the parks and other public lands at Benbrook Lake. Playgrounds, sporting complexes, stables, marinas, and golf courses are all part of Benbrook Lake recreation leased by the adjacent cities. The Corps of Engineers manages all other parks and lands around the lake, and has developed camping and picnicking facilities in Longhorn, Holiday, Mustang, and Rocky Creek Parks.

Benbrook Lake is a water resource project operated by the Fort Worth District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. At the normal, or conservation pool, level of 694 feet above sea level, the lake covers 3,770 surface acres. This would increase to 7,630 acres if the lake ever reaches the nominal maximum flood pool elevation of 724. All land around Benbrook Lake is public property owned by the Corps of Engineers. Benbrook dam is located on the Clear Fork of the Trinity River, about fifteen river miles above its confluence with the West Fork of the Trinity in downtown Fort Worth.
