The Lake Brownwood State Park receives approximately 50,000 dollars in renovations to its hiking trails, paths and parks State Coordinator Trey Cooksey.
The money is part of a recreational trail program under the Federal Highway Administration. Lake Brownwood was one of the seven Texas State parks that received funding for their paths. Others were Lake Cooper, Eisenhower, Huntsville, Lake Corpus Christi, McKinney Falls and Tyler.
Lake Brownwood Park Superintendent John Holland said work will begin in September.
The work will concentrate on Texas oak trail follows the North Coast and the Lakeside trail on the eastern end of the Lake. The Netherlands, said that the path is historically significant because Lakeside includes a picnic area that was built by the Works Progress Administration during the depression.
"It worked which is much needed and I am very excited," said Holland.
The work around the State will focus on refurbishing existing paths, rather than opening new trails.
Cooksey agreed that the path in state parks need work. http://hikingholiday.org
