Take your pick of fishing (there are seven piers!), swimming, jogging, canoeing, kayaking (which you can rent for the day), windsurfing, kitesurfing, or walking the three-mile trail. Stop by the playground or beach area, and consider renting out the pavilion for a special event, like a birthday party or graduation celebration. The best part of Lake Pflugerville Park? You can rent “full moon” floats for nighttime paddling on full moon nights!
