Fort Worth Stockyards National Historic District

To be a true Texan you have to know and understand the history of Texas. Right at the roots of Texas is the livestock industry.

Every day at 11:30am  and 4:00pm you can see a cattle drive. You can see the steers before and after the drive in their pens. Have you ever been up close to a Texas Long Horn? They are big, majestic animals.

If you want to see a cattle drive, chances are you would want to stick around for the blue collar band. Featuring Grady Spencer and the Work.

Check the calendar for other events: Bull Riding, Trick Roping and Guitar Strumming.



Benbrook Stables

Visit Benbrook Stables for a great date night. On this date you will ride horseback side by side around Lake Benbrook. Doesn’t that sound absolutely perfect?  If you don’t feel comfortable on a ride that lasts for miles you can always choose an arena ride.

Benbrook Stables have excellent, well trained gentle horses. They are perfect for even first time riders.  If you’ve ever wanted to have a horse riding date, this is the perfect location.


**Trail Rides are cash only**
