State Park Events
Electric Tram Tour
Estero Llano Grande was designed as a walking park, but hiking the trails can be difficult for some park guests. Now, every Sunday from 2-4 p.m., guests can see the park’s beautiful scenery and wildlife on a two-hour tour in a quiet electric tram. Reservations required, call 956-565-3919 to secure your spot
