The blue trail has opened an extension in May 2021 that can add an extra 2 miles to the trail. And if you don’t want to do an out and back on this paved extension, you can simply go down a paved path and pick the blue trail back up at a lower level.
I’ve gone to this trail multiple times. I love that it has a walking lane separate from the bike lane. My only complaint is that it is hard to find parking since it is mostly in the city and surrounded by residential area.
More like a side walk on one side of the park, then small regular side walk.
Beautiful trails in the midst of plant and animal life.
This is a paved trail that is typically 2 lanes wide, narrowing to a single lane on bridges. As others have noted it can be noisy due to proximity to Love Field airport. My primary negative is that about half the trail runs adjacent to streets, which means inhaling the exhaust from the passing cars. How bad a problem this is will vary by the amount of traffic at any given time.Here on traillink.com the trail is described as 3.5 miles in length while at alltrails.com it is described as 3 miles (= 5k). I don't know who is closer to accurate. This trail has benches for resting along the route, and playgrounds for children.
Very noisy highways nearby. Lots of sun!
Parking along Shoreline is best if you are coming by to do a single 5k loop. The parking lot is usually crowded and has kids parties with music. There is a great hill around back so its not just a flat surface. Perfect loop trail to trail on.
The surface is great for biking and running, but the trail is far from scenic. There are a few road crossings, all are easy to cross except rufe snow which takes some time. The entire trail is under major power lines, which doesn’t make for a relaxing getaway trail. There’s also many backyards with territorial dogs so this trail isn’t great for the nervous or intimidated dog. The fact that it isn’t the most beautiful does make it less busy and crowded.
Mix of paved and gravel trails available. There is trash around, but take time to see the beauty. Parts seem like open prairie. When you get west of Sylvan, it becomes quiet and you can hear hawks. Watch for ducks, herons, and cranes. Btw, there are feral hogs early dawn and late Eve. You can find their tracks. Great place to hike with no cars.
