I'm a novice biker and I really enjoyed this trail. Very well maintained.
I walked this trail with my dog on a Friday morning in June. On one hand I liked that no one was on the trail, but good human interaction was missed. The parking area is adequate and clean. The trails walkway also leads to Moore Park which I think makes this area great for a walkathon. But the trail itself is short (.86 of a mile) and secluded. I wouldn't suggest going alone or at night.
From what I see these improvements are a plus for Kiest Park area residents for family and friends to share in outdoor activities especially walking and jogging and biking. I grew up in Dallas since back in 1963 and I have always enjoyed this park. I have seen it grow over the years into a place that is great fun for the entire family.
It offers places to just set and read, or to take the kids for play. The tennis courts are second to none. The recreation center offers many activities for young and old. The basketball courts are up to date and I have enjoyed many hours just setting and watching the basket ball players at practice or enjoyed hours of chess with members of the chess club.
I once was a member of the 100 mile club. That I will one day look into once again.
I was a little apprehensive to walk the trail at first because I thought the smell of the trinity would over power me or I would see snakes but I just decided to do it and I'm so very happy I did because once I stepped on the trail it was so beautiful you can see downtown dallas and once you get to the bridge its amazing I love the bridge and you look down and you see the cascading water flow its absolutely breathtaking I go every chance I get. So you not only get a workout you get a peace of mind. ENJOY!! :-)
We have been walking this trail for a couple of years now. It is clean and well maintained. There are some who ride bikes but the trail is nice and wide so there's lots of room and lots of stuff to see. If you feel like walking on the original trail...without the concrete, it's still there as well and walks a little closer to the creek. Your dog is welcomed (on a leash) as there is a dog park along the way. We have taken the trail from both ends, peaceful and lovely all the way. We enjoy the very nice butterfly gardens. Beautiful trail, nice people and one of our favorite places to take a long walk. :-)
It's very fast yet enjoyable ride. I rode the trail for the first time on 9/06/2014, and I had a great time doing. The entire trail is paved. The elevation is easy on the knees, so if you have a weak knee(s), this trail ables you to finish it without much strain on your knees. I will be riding this trail again with my family. I drove in from Desoto, TX to ride this trail. Time we'll spent.
I've been running the Kiest Park Loop for a couple of years, and I like it. The trail loops 2 mi. around the park & provides variety w/ no steep inclines. B
Not a great trail for cyclists. Trail is bumpy and very narrow with tight curves. I went on a cold and cloudy day and it was rather crowded. This appears to me more of a trail for walkers.
What a great trail this is! You can tell that a LOT of money was put into this project. The trail starts off near the DART Rail Station at 8th & Corinth and winds down, around, over, and past the Trinity River finishing up near the end of Riverfront (Industrial) Blvd. It connects to the Trinity Levee Trails here.
This trail offers outstanding views of Downtown Dallas from the lesser-seen southern side. The DART trains scurry back & forth overhead, breaking the sound of silence. The trail is immaculate from end to end and offers a place to sit and rest on the elevated section near the 1903 Steel Pratt Truss. The sounds of the Trinity rushing by are very relaxing. I was told that the Corinth Street Viaduct is lit up at night and is beautiful combined with the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge and Downtown Dallas lights. I will have to see for myself...very soon!
I hiked this trail immediately after the Santa Fe Trestle Trail and it didn't hold up to what I had already enjoyed there. The trail consists of a dirt path amongst trees east of the parking area and a blacktop path passing through Robert Oren Park to the west. The park and road were packed with people playing / watching a soccer game going on. The playground was overrun with kids making a quiet hike an impossible task.
There was nothing overly scenic to stop and look at or take pictures of, and the neighborhood the trail is located in is, how shall I put it...less than optimal. If hiking this trail, buddy up, no matter the time of day, or day of the week.
The "trail" is broken into 3 segments. The 1st segment of the trail begins in a housing community so parking is strange. When one segment of the trail ends, you have to cross a mildly busy street and go around the corner to get to the next segment. Not much to look at, but the middle section of the trail goes right behind the library, and shortly after passing the library there is a good-sized playground; great if you've brought children along.
I run/bike this path often, it is never congested with people; so again, great for little ones that haven't quite mastered bike riding. Plenty of un-populated path for them to swerve and wobble.
Bottom line: if you're looking for a scenic trail to travel on with a spouse, look elsewhere. This is not a trail for avid bikers looking for a workout either, it's relatively short and you have to stop multiple times to cross the street to get to the next segment of trail. This is a short trail, safe for children (has 1 or 2 hills they'll probably have to walk) with playgrounds and eateries nearby.
