Cottonwood Creek Greenbelt Trail (Frisco)

nice short ride

May, 2026 by smith-ma

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 !

Lakefront Trail

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!

Campion Trail

Excellent Path For Running!

February, 2026 by kwillbarger

I am from NH and was thrilled to find this path via this app. Exceeded expectations! Wide, extremely clean, scenic, a lot of tree coverage as well as open space. So many runners, walkers, bikers, and families. I appreciated the Porta John located where I parked. Awesome place for my 18 mile run today. Thank you Texas! Kate

Cotton Belt 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.

Legacy Trail (TX)

Worth the effort

November, 2025 by 5fn4vsbyrg

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.

Campion Trail

North Portion

August, 2025 by turnerr66

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!

sure it is short, but lovely

July, 2025 by yyyzkj4q5c

Perfect for all kinds of human fueled wheels.

Cotton Belt Trail

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.

Campion Trail

water covers trails

May, 2025 by donamarrone

The drainage on this trail is subpar and it is often closed during rainy season! I am unaware of a source to see if sections of trail are closed due to flooding!

A-train Rail Trail

April 2025 Review

April, 2025 by alisonstarr.org

Perhaps the negative reviews were also about things not being completed but at least for me. I really enjoyed this trail. Apart from having to stop at crossroads where there is a lot of traffic it is smooth, very cynic from current to a little past Lake Louisville. I used to riding in Dallas from Oakcliff to the Trinity river, so this is very enjoyable.
