Giant Magical Tree in Cedar Park


A giant oak tree awaits your family in Cedar Park. Standing under it each year is magical for my children--the tree is a giant umbrella of 50,000 clear lights and is billed as the largest oak in Cedar Park.

Pack a snack and some hot chocolate and dance in the dark under this awesome tree located at: Heritage Oak Park, 875 Quest Parkway in Cedar Park. To get there, take 183 to Discovery Blvd (by Walgreens in Cedar Park, just south of 1431), make a left onto Quest Blvd. Drive past the tree on the left (the park is really a big traffic island), and make a left into the post office parking lot. Park and walk over to the tree. There is no charge for this event. Often times, there are just one or two families stopping by to check out the tree, so the experience is quite solemn--a great way to escape the hustle and bustle this time of year.
