Airfield Falls Conservation Park

Airfield Falls Conservation Park is a small park hosting Tarrant County's largest natural waterfall in Westworth Village not far from downtown Fort Worth.  A paved trail leads from the trailhead to the waterfall and on to West Fork Trinity River.  The trailhead and park is managed by the Tarrant Regional Water District as part of the Trinity Trails.  The park is located on the east side of Naval Air Station JRB and there is a partial replica of a McDonnell Douglas C-19 at the trailhead.
