It was a great trail and well paved for biking or skating. We saw a snake so be careful but it was very beautiful. Can’t wait to see the rest of it.
We planned to ride both legs, but the one that ends at McArthur is closed about a mile out from Lone Star Park. We turned around and completed the western leg as planned. Not surprisingly, lots of rocks and pot holes on that trail. There was a lot of tree debris on the western leg. Not sure if it was the day of the week or time (Tuesday @ around 1000), but we were the only ones on the trail. It was a nice trail but I would have been more comfortable with a bit more activity.
This roughly 7 mile (end to end) trail winds through parks, neighborhoods, and along a nice greenway offering a good ride with little elevation. There is one intersection with vehicle traffic in Arlington, but the trail is safe, smooth (concrete), and busy with riders, walkers, and others out enjoying the trail.
This is our first time in this park; it's a super busy place. You have to be very careful because there are people walking, running, skating, with strollers, and on bicycles. And if it's your first time, the energy is amazing
Rode this trail on Christmas day. It's a great trail but I can imagine all of the intersections might be sketchy during high traffic times. Other than that it's an awesome trail.
This is a fun trail for walkers, runners, families, bikes, and E–bikes. The trail is picturesque and interesting so you don’t get bored easily. I can’t get busy on weekends, but if you go at the right hour, hopefully you’ll be able to do the path without too much congestion. For an in–city trail, this one gets five stars.
My hub and I parked one of our cars at Celeste HS and the other at the Farmersville Trailhead parking lot. Starting at 8:10am from the trailhead, we hiked the 13.2 miles. We are in moderate shape and our feet were dead when we reached the high school around 1pm. I have large blisters on the outside of each foot and hub has blisters on both of his achiles tendons. The trail was great. It was clean and had many benches and trashcans within 3 miles of the trailhead. The trail crosses many streets and many bridges. The trees shade a majority of the trail. There aren't any benches between Merit and Celeste and much of the trail is rocky.
Not the best for single women to walk alone. So take a friend a stick or some maze if you do! Better for riding bikes.
Rode the North portion of the trail today. Almost 10 miles from the bottom to the top. Parked at the bottom. Near a water treatment facility. Awful smell depending on the wind. The trail is very nice. Smooth concrete. The restroom shown on the Trail Link map is over near the Paws Colinas Dog Park. Hidden inside a wind shelter that looks like some dumpsters should be hidden in there. “Restrooms” = 2 portable toilets!
Perfect for all kinds of human fueled wheels.
Great trail, some crossings are a bit sketchy. Over all a great ride for a recumbent bike great places to stop get water and restrooms along the way. Once you reach grape vine from cambridge or iron horse trail head there are great places to eat.
