Fort Worth Herd

So much fun!!! We got watch the cattle drive and the a cowboys gun fight. So many other activities,stores, and great restaurants to visit . If you are visiting Texas, this is a great “Texas” experience!!! We all had a great time!

There are handprints of many famous singers. The place is huge.

There is a small fee to walk around.

Several interesting displays. Costumes, and the bull that you can have your photo taken with. Guitar pic display.

Play a round of pool or a pinball game. Simply get a beer. Cool of in the AC.

Amazing experience they are doing daily 11:30 and 4 pm

Awesome place. Herd Shows are at 10:00 and 16:00.

We stuck around after the rodeo. It was cool to see the majestic longhorns up close but people were down right rude about standing in front of our kids.

I’m a Fort Worth local and this was still very fun to see. The cattle drive is daily and goes down the main road of the Stock Yards, so you can see it by just standing on the curb. The horses are friendly enough to pet (just ask the cowboy or cowgirl first and they’ll guide you in petting). Highly recommend bringing family from out of town to this - very fun!

Park in the public parking on Stockyard Blvd. $10 to park all day. Look for the signs with the QR code to pay by phone. They have a cat walk that you will use to cross over the animal pens and come in behind the museum. Quick walk and you get a chance to see the longhorns chilling below. Accessibility wise, this is NOT the parking if you cannot navigate 5 or 6 stairs to get up to the catwalk.

The herd consists of some truly amazing specimens! Those horns are much longer than you'd imagine. They will generally have one or two of them saddled up for photos with the kids for free. Donations and tips are highly recommended!! Help feed the herd!
