Lake Mineral Wells State Park & Trailway is a 3,282.5 acres (1,328 ha) state park located in Mineral Wells, Palo Pinto County, Texas, United States. The park opened in 1981 and is managed by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. It includes Lake Mineral Wells and is the only state park in Texas which protects part of the Western Cross Timbers and Mineral Wells Trailway. Also within the park is Penitentiary Hollow, a somewhat unusual geological feature which resembles a small canyon. It is a popular site for rock climbing, though the only type of climbing allowed is top rope. The park also features over 31 miles (50 km) of hiking trails, 25 miles (40 km) of which are open to bicycles and horses. Campsites can be found by the small lake, and up on the higher areas of the park, as well.
