Things to Do in Colleyville, Texas

The Colleyville Nature Center is the town's signature spot — 46 acres of woods and water with nine ponds, 3.5 miles of trails, an amphitheater, a playground, and a fishing pier. It's a genuine pocket of nature in a built-up part of Tarrant County, good for a walk, a picnic, or a morning of fishing.

For a suburb its size, having this much protected green space near the center of town is a real amenity, and it's the first thing most visitors are pointed toward.

Colleyville Village is the town's social center — an outdoor shopping district with restaurants, shops, and a movie theater that stands in for a traditional downtown. It's where residents go to eat, shop, and catch a film, and it anchors most of an evening out in Colleyville.

With upscale spots like Next Wood Fired Bistro nearby, the Village and the dining around it make for an easy, low-key night out.

Outdoor time centers on the Cottonbelt Trail, which links Colleyville's parks into more than twenty miles of connected walking and biking paths across Northeast Tarrant County. It's a favorite for cyclists and runners covering distance.

When you want more, Colleyville is minutes from two of the best districts in the Metroplex: Grapevine's historic Main Street, wineries, and Lake Grapevine, and Southlake Town Square's high-end shopping and dining. Between them, there's far more to do just outside town than in it — which is exactly how Colleyville residents tend to like it.
