What a wonderful trail! I rode the Spring Creek Greenway in mid March on perfect 75 degree sunny day. The trail is curvy with gentle hills and totally wooded and shaded. You couldn't ask for a better trail, it's wide, smooth, and scenic. On the Trail Link map it shows a disconnect but when I rode it the entire trail was paved with no gaps. I don't think 5 stars is sufficient!

It’s a nice ride but I hate that ppl can’t respect the little nature we have in Houston. It’s has a lower income area around it in some places and it just seems with that ppl don’t respect what little they have.
Started at the trail head off 69 and went as far construction and returned. A good 30+ miles. Surface was smooth and not too much elevation. A really nice ride through the woods with nice views of the river.
There is an east side of 45 section and a west side of 45. Unfortunately, there is no safe connection between the two sections. You need to ride the 45 access roads on each side, both busy and no bike lanes or sidewalks. Not recommended. And I did not traverse 12 miles of trails. Disappointed. There is potential.
I agree with the 2 other reviews. In addition to lack of safety rest and water stops the illegal dumping of a nice green space is terrible. What is being done about this? I don’t see these problems on Allen Parkway, Memorial Park, or Hermann Park . Not on Braes Bayou either.
The trail is closed at Pundt Park with construction cones. Was able to park at Dennis Johnston park and ride west. But miss the long ride to Humble.
The trail is wonderful. Very scenic. Well maintained and marked. Wonderful for biking or running.
If you start out in spring and head towards the rest of the trail there is a piece where it just ends. You literally have to walk/ride/run along the busy highway and then cut down a hill of tall grass to connect back on the trail.. super stupid.
We love riding this trail, because not only is it an interesting & pretty ride along the river, but also you really feel like you’re in the wilderness & away from it all. Path is in good condition & well marked
