The Pear-Scape Sculpture Trail includes 20, four-foot-high, fiberglass cast pears artistically painted by local artists and placed in locations throughout Pearland. The project was envisioned and unveiled by the Pearland Convention & Visitors Bureau (CVB) in 2016 with the goal of promoting cultural tourism and community pride. The trail introduces visitors to both the beauty of the pears, and a tour of the city along the way.

The Pear-Scape Trail is spread over Pearland’s 68 square miles, with the 20 pears installed at nine distinct locations. Visitors can take part in the Pear Scape Scavenger Hunt to explore Pearland parks, attractions, and hospitality spots to discover their favorite pear. The scavenger hunt clues act as a self-guided tour; including riddles and puzzles that lead to the locations of the colorful pears. There are kid-friendly clues, as well as more in-depth options for those looking for more of a challenge. Guests can simply log on and find the clues at VisitPearland.com/pearscape, grab their group, and get ready to have fun outdoors and learn some interesting things about Pearland along the way. The Pearland CVB encourages visitors to take photos of themselves with the pears along the trail, and to post their findings on social media using the #VisitPearland hashtag.
