Get your passes for Emma Long
Tuesday, March 1, 2022 by Tai Moses
Want to spend time at Emma Long Metropolitan Park this weekend? The Parks and Recreation Department has reverted to its practice of requiring vehicle and pedestrian passes for entry to the park Friday through Sunday and on holidays. To get your seasonal pass, visit AustinTexas.gov/Parks, click on Reserve Park Passes, and then select Park Day Pass under type. It’s that easy! The regular entry fees still apply. Remember, no parking is allowed on the right of way outside the park. Reserve a day pass and park only in the designated parking areas. And bring everything you’ll need for your stay because once you arrive, there are no in-and-out privileges.
