Sprinkled throughout the rolling hills of Lake Highlands are a myriad of parks and recreational facilities providing tennis, swimming, soccer, biking, and numerous scenic picnic sites. Nearby White Rock Lake is a favorite spot for sailing and fishing. A bike and jogging path encircles the lake and follows the White Rock Creek greenbelt through the heart of Lake Highlands.
