The Uvalde Memorial Park entrance is right where the bridge crosses the Taylor Slough of the Leona River. If traveling on eastward on Main Street/US 90, the park will be on the right side where a large metal arch indicates the entrance into the park, which is Garden Street. The parking spaces begins near the coordinates of N29 11.906 W099 48.783 and continue along Garden Street to a small parking lot. Since the 1st tee to the Uvalde Memorial Disc Golf Course is close to the bridge at the park entrance, it is best to park as close to the entrance as you can get.
The safe way to get to the 1st tee is to walk back toward the park entrance, but veer to the right and follow the walking path that leads under the bridge to the other side of the bridge. Continue on the walking path and take the left fork that will take you near street level and close to the Civic Center. Close to the corner of the Civic Center and the bridge is the tee pad for the 1st hole of the disc golf course. A pole with an illustration of this pad in relation to the disc basket is on the proper right edge of the tee pad. Basically you throw toward the bridge supports holding up the highway and dog leg to the left.
This disc golf course was originally developed in 2013 as a small course, but in 2017 was expanded to have a full 18 disc basket course. There are many mature trees and some water hazards incorporated into the features of this course. The whole course is less than a full mile but is designed with enough technically challenging shots to give the experienced disc golfer a good challenge. For the casual disc golfer, this is a good one to use to stay in practice and to improve throwing skills. The tee pads and signs are well kept and the baskets are in excellent condition.
