Take the family on an outing to Texas State Railroad Rusk Depot during your trip to Rusk. While you're in the area, wander around the parks.
Though Rusk State Hospital might be what brings you to town, perhaps you'll have a chance to explore more of Rusk while you are here.
You can learn about the history of Rusk with a visit to Rusk Footbridge. Amble within the parks or visit the monuments in this family-friendly area.
