In Short
White Rock Lake is the largest body of water in Dallas and offers a wide variety of outdoor activities. While some prefer to take a leisurely stroll or cycle around the nine-mile hike and bike trail, you can also rent sailboats, fish from numerous piers and have a picnic. Sponsored walks and runs, including the March of Dimes Walk America, the White Rock Marathon and the White Rock Lake Trash Bash, consistently draw huge crowds.
