This is a wonderful trail that we walk on almost everyday. However since school has started back in August, the Southlake Carrol IDS has completed taken over the entire trail from Precinct Line Road to Bransford Rd from 6:30 am to 7:30 am on weekday mornings. They run in packs and across both side of the trail leaving no room as they run for anyone else to utilize this portion of the trail as they run back and forth from Bransford Rd to Precinct Line Road. The other runners, walkers and bikers have no where to pass as they take the entire width of both marked lanes of the path for this hour of the mornings. They do not observe staying on the right side and passing on the left of the marked trail. We have contacted the Southlake Carrol ISD Athletic Director in hopes that she could get with the coaching staff to help advise them to follow trail etiquette if they needed to continue to utilize this portion of the trail. This was not the case. Now there is a "coach" that rides his e-bike with a speaker playing loud music riding on the left side of the trail as he leads the herd of runners down the trail. This portion of the trail is not in Southlake city limits and I wish that the Southlake Carrol ISD would find a more suitable location to run that would allow the local residents to enjoy the use of this portion of the trail as it is cleat that they have no intention of allowing anyone else to safely use this portion of the trail.
The trail seems fine and maintained but you're just kinda walking in a big circle with not much to look at, would have liked more trails that cut off into the woods cause the nature in the area is actually quite interesting!!
Make sure you read the description all the way through. I rode my hybrid street bike on this trail and glad my tires were not affected by the gravel. Good to know my tires held up well. All in all a lovely trail. I wish I had known about it when my kids were younger. It appears they did a nice job of adding educational signs along the first quarter mile from the Ridgemont entrance. Also more interpretive signs along most trail.
This is a nice short trail but we always ride this trail out and back and then connect to other trails riding along the Frisco trails bike lane to McCormick park and then lake front trails! Makes for a nice long ride !
We ride this trail all the time ! It is a safe, scenic ride and when connecting to other trails. We can get a 30 mile ride in!
I loved this trail. Beautiful scenery, very lively, lots of birds and flowers. The pond is relaxing. We even saw a blue heron. Highly recommend!
Started in Farmersville. Very peaceful, love the sound of the birds, nice paved trail
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.
Perfect for all kinds of human fueled wheels.
