  • Visit Bachman Lake in Northwest Dallas

    Bachman Lake, nestled in northwest Dallas, Texas, is a scenic 205-acre freshwater lake that serves as a hub for recreational activities. Located strategically near Dallas Love Field airport and the Bluffview neighborhood, it offers accessibility and a stunning backdrop for visitors. The area is well-equipped with the Bachman Recreation Center, various picnic spots, a playground, and a comprehensive 3.3-mile trail catering to both pedestrians and cyclists, complete with amenities like fitness stations and restrooms.

    The lake is not just about leisure walks and picnics; it's also a center for water sports and fishing, hosting the Dallas Rowing Club and providing facilities for sailing and rowing. With a marina and boathouse, enthusiasts can enjoy these activities conveniently. Additionally, the lake is a fishing destination, regularly stocked with catfish, although feeding the wildlife is restricted to ensure the safety of both animals and the airport's operations. Public transit is easily accessible at the western end through Bachman Station, enhancing connectivity for visitors.
