I love this trail but I see a huge safety concern where it intersects Main St in NRH. Three posts are difficult to navigate between while simultaneously looking both ways for auto traffic. Removing the middle post would be the best solution and still would prevent autos from crossing there. Tried to drop a photo in here, couldn’t get that to work.
This is a hidden gem right in the middle of Collin County. I have enjoyed this trail recently and plan to make it my primary destination as much as possible. Absolutely enjoy the trails and quiet nature of the park.
Best to do trail early in the day bring water because thirst can sneak on you.
Our family really enjoys this trail on and off the path. It is serene, smells good and fun.
I love to ride this trail. I will be glad when the construction at Cravens Park is finished so we can ride the entire trail again.
Initially just planned on riding the paved trail. I did not realize there was an off-road section. What a great surprise! The trail had a few surprises that I was not able to navigate and had to walk. Maybe when I get more experience I won't have to walk. Even though, the trail is safe and I had a great time.
The only down side is that the paved trail is blocked where it goes under Hwy 77 due to construction, so the path is not contiguous 6 miles.
Still a great ride and very nice place.
This trail is a good length for a walk—3.5 mile concrete trail around a man made lake with just a bit of shade. It seems like a popular place to walk, ride, or fish. However, it’s near Dallas Love, the light rail, and some busy streets. It’s like experiencing a sampling of transportation. It’s the first trail I’ve been on with lots of signs for calling 911. Not sure what that says about this trail. Park in the lots near Lakefield and Northwest. There are much prettier trails than this one.
Great trail with a lot of curves. The trail gets a little boring at parts but still better than the roads. Note: got lost and turned on the Blue Bonnet trail, had to circle back - not a critique on the trail more of an FYI.
This is really the only long trail that Burleson has to offer.
Wonderful trail across bridge connecting Trinity Groves restaurants in South Dallas to Downtown Dallas. Playground on bridge makes it fun for the family! Can see Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge and overlooks the Trinity River. Can bike, walk or ride scooters. Nearby parking or accessible from Trinity Skyline Trail.
The Chisholm Trail is a well maintained, paved, neighborhood ride that passes behind many beautiful houses and shopping areas and connects many small playgrounds. It is wide, well marked and mostly flat and goes underneath any major road so is a continuous ride. . It is mostly sunny and exposed. There is no parking at Chisholm Trail Park at one end but you can park in a nearby elementary school on Marchman Way. The easiest parking is at the other end at Harrington Park.The Bluebonnet trail links with it near the dog park. I have found conflicting sites stating the distance of the completed loop from Legacy Drive to Harrington park down one side and then back the other side of the creek.
