Parked in an access lot about two miles from downtown (boat launch and sheriff’s substation) and rode south. It’s a well maintained, paved trail. Relatively flat. It’s closer to the highway than the river in many spots, unfortunately, probably because of the flood plain. Still, it’s pleasant ride. The highlight is the southernmost end that goes into the Red River National Wildlife area. I don’t think this 2-3 mile section is included on the trail map or in the mileages posted. It’s the highlight of the ride. We didn’t see another biker on the entirety of our 17 mile round trip. Just a few pedestrians. Undiscovered gem.
Longview is listed to have three trails, Cargill, Guthrie and Boorman. This is true BUT all three connect seamlessly!! You can bike from one end to the other making for a 10 mile one way trip or 20 miles round trip! The trails are beautifully landscaped and cared for with benches and workout stations. Highly populated with beautiful cardinals and an occasional bunny rabbit. Green grass beautiful and always mowed length of Boorman trail and Guthrie Trail. Trail is wide concrete on these two. Cargill portion has many more hills, but is also beautiful, but asphalt surface. These trails are so shady and therefore beautiful in the

Road the trail today. Parking can be found at the riverfront near the aquarium. The trail is rough so don’t expect a smooth ride and but can be ridden. Should be ridden at a leisure pace due to curves, small overhanging limbs, wash outs, grass growing through cracks, holes, cracking and lifting of asphalt caused by tree roots. Beware of offshoot tunnels as one we tried got caught in deep mud and had to push our bikes out.
We rode 19.9 miles on this trail yesterday. It was an easy ride. We got on at the Brookshire Grocery Arena and road a little pass Boomtown Casino and back the other way a little past the Nature Center. The trail is mainly open, has more trees on the eastern side, has bathroom stops and lots of picnics tables and seats along the trail. A good portion follows the Red River. It definitely was worth the ride.
There is 3+ miles of this trail not on the map. I ran Cargill Long Park from 4th Street to Judson (1.76 miles) and only found 10’ wide perfect concrete. It wound between neighborhoods, over creeks, and under a bridge. I appreciate the City of Longview providing this trail system. Great place to run, walk, or bike.
My wife and I started from the Lake Caroline Boat Launch parking area which is the southernmost end of the trail and rode to Diamond Jack Blvd. The trail is shaded by trees in the Lake Caroline area, but becomes more open as it gets closer to the Arthur RT Parkway. It's a nice ride, but could be longer.
Great scenic trail for walking with the dogs. Large dog parks on the trail with fences.
This trail is very scenic and there is a lot of nature to take in! If you don’t mind snakes this is the perfect trail for you!
If you don’t bother the snakes they won’t bother you! Just watch your step!
This trail is excellent for families! Great path for walking, riding, or roller blading!
The trail is not quite 3 miles, one way. It's perfect for biking, walking, running, rollerblading, etc. They have a bathroom at one of the trailheads (Fairmont St Trailhead). Its awesomely shaded in a lot of areas and it's got gorgeous scenery. You will see deer along the trail sometimes and lightning bugs right as the sun is going down. I rollerblade and bike ride on this trail everyday and LOVE it. It's awesome that Longview has this. There are also 2 dog parks, both right off the Loop Entrance.
