North Richland Hills Guide

Things to Do in North Richland Hills, Texas

North Richland Hills packs a lot into a Mid-Cities suburb — one of the top water parks in the country, a hockey arena, and a well-regarded public golf course, plus quick access to the rest of Northeast Tarrant County. It's a recreation-focused town with genuine draws.

Here's what to do in and around North Richland Hills.

NRH2O Family Water Park

NRH2O is the town's signature attraction — a 17-acre water park, the first municipally owned one in Texas, with 22 waterslides, a wave pool, an endless river, an interactive water playground, and the world's largest uphill watercoaster, the Viper. It ranks among the top water parks in the nation.

It's a summer destination that pulls families from across the Metroplex, and it's the first thing most visitors to North Richland Hills are pointed toward.

Hockey and Golf

For a different day, the NYTEX Sports Centre is home to the Lone Star Brahmas hockey team, with ice skating and club sports year-round — catching a Brahmas game is a fun, affordable night out. And Iron Horse Golf Course offers a well-regarded 18-hole public round along former rail lines.

Between the rink and the golf course, North Richland Hills has real recreation beyond the water park, and both draw people from around the area.

Parks and Nearby

The city's parks and trails cover everyday recreation, and its central spot in Northeast Tarrant County keeps bigger attractions close. Grapevine's Main Street and Lake Grapevine, Southlake Town Square, and Fort Worth are all a short drive.

Between the water park, the hockey, the golf, and the neighbors' attractions, North Richland Hills fills a weekend easily.
