The Givens, Spicer & Lowry Trail in Palo Duro Canyon is one of the most popular treks in this chasm of rock. It retains its popularity with trail enthusiasts not only because of its winding path, but also because it's laid out among some of the oldest sedimentary rock in the entire canyon. Geologists have traced this slab of rock back to the Permian Period which makes the backdrop of this amazing recreation trail about 230 million years old.

The Tascosa Golf Club presents some obvious challenges over its eighteen holes. You'll face a rolling terrain, elevation changes, and several water hazards on the course. Those include a lake, a creek and a natural waterfall. The Club also features 6,676 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72. Among veteran golfers, this course rates somewhat difficult because of the water hazards and high elevation, so be prepared to have your senses dazzled and your game sharpened by the natural surroundings.

Touted as the place in town where more than imaginations run wild, the Amarillo Zoo captures the drama and beauty of the animal kingdom for kids of all ages.  The sprawling 15-acre site is located in Thompson Park and features over 60 species of animals from all over the world.

And since the zoo is located in Thompson Park, plan to spend the rest of the day in the park enjoying a picnic, a game of tennis, a refreshing swim or brisk walk on one of the many walking trails.
