If you are looking for a peaceful walk/hike, this is a great place. The trail is a little rough in spots (definitely not suitable for inline skates) and the branches on both sides need to be trimmed in some areas (as of Aug./Sept. 2010), but you'll see a lot of butterflies/dragonflies in the summer and there is very little traffic on it. The trail runs parallel to the interstate (about 1/2 mile away), so you can marginally hear the traffic noise from there, but other than that it's very quiet and peaceful. If you are planning to walk in the summer and not go the whole way, you're better off starting at the north end, which is nice and shaded for quite a ways. In Farmersville, follow the signs to the trailhead parking (even if it almost looks like a driveway after a while). The southern third of the trail is more open and has a lot less shade. If you are walking with dogs, don't let them stray off the trail much because there is a lot of poison ivy on both sides of the trail. If you stay on the trail (about 5 feet wide), you're not going to have any problems with it though. Please be aware that there really is nothing in Waggoner (not even a working soda machine), so make sure you bring your own water.

Was on it this weekend 7-9-10. Short trail a little rough. South end is good views of farm land. North end has semi wetland areas. Observed plenty of wildlife, lots of birds. Trail is maintained some of the trees need cut back though. You can park at either end . North end has a nice little community park close to the trail to take a break. Both communitys are small, so need the patronage.

I think there is a problem with the map link. The dynamic map link actually leads you to a map of the "Green Bay Trail" which is along Lake Michigan in Cook County (mostly). You may want to actually post the map of the "Green Diamond Trail" if it exists.
