River Legacy Trail

great ride

October, 2024 by ronred

Much if the trail to the right of entrance closed off. Didn’t get a chance to ride the lake route. Otherwise nice ride.

Lake Mineral Wells State Trailway

Trail still closed east of Hwy 1195.

August, 2024 by harhir

Rode part of the trail on 08/03/24. Trail is still closed east of Hwy 1195. According to other reviews it has been closed for at least a year. And maintenance on the open stretch west of Hwy 1195 does not seem to not exist. So right now I cannot recommend riding the trail.

Lake Mineral Wells State Trailway

So much potential

July, 2024 by mardechris

We rode this trail Saturday. We parked at the trailhead in Mineral Wells after driving three hours. The goal was to change in the advertised restrooms, fill up water, and head east to Weatherford. We were disappointed to find the restrooms locked, but adapted and changed in the truck instead. The first several miles were paved. The trail became crushed gravel at the state park pay station. We rode a little further east from the pay station to find a bridge blocked off due to structural damage. We discussed how odd it was that there was not any info about the bridge at the pay station that wanted $7.00 a person to ride, and continued on by hiking the bike down through the creek and around the broken bridge. A little further on we found ourselves fenced in and facing a huge washout. We could either get the bike across the washout or head back out past the broken bridge. We chose to go forward and get the bike across the washout. I am glad we did because a little further down the trail we came upon a beautiful steel girder bridge over a clear creek! We spent a little time enjoying the few and hit the trail again. Imagine our dismay when we came to some orange cones and barrels with in the trail near the Vietnam War Museum. After talking to the museum docent, we discovered that the trail has been “closed” for a while on the section we hiked/carried our bike over. We would have gone around had there been any information anywhere, although getting through the broken sections wasn’t a big challenge at all. After visiting the museum, we continued east. The trail is in ok shape with multiple soft areas that might cause a fall. Also, the only water was found on the Weatherford side, although the maps showed more locations for water. All in all, it was a fun one way ride. We chose to return by highway to the Mineral Wells trailhead to avoid soft spots, ginormous holes, and broken bridges. If you decide the ride, the Crazy Water Hotel is a fun place to stay. Don’t miss the Vietnam War Museum, either!

Cotton Belt Trail

Colleyville city- Cotton Belt Trail Review

March, 2024 by leytonlehner

I walked along the Cotton Belt trail with my sister and father on a nice Thursday night. The trail happens to go through our neighborhood and area (as well as Hurst, Grapevine, and North Richland Hills.) and thought it would be a wonderful experience to go on. The Cotton Belt trail is home to many attractions and gentle scenery along its paths. From what I can see from the Colleyville portion of the path, most of the trail is kept clean by the community, and the people who live along the trail enjoy the walks they get; However, I did see trash in the brush around the path. A thing I believe that could be improved is possibly wider paths for more people to walk on at once, but also keep a distance from others. The trail provides trash cans along the path, as well as bags for dog poop. The Colleyville trail still has a lot of wildlife, while also being in an urban area. I believe this trail is a great place to go and see nature outside while enjoying it thoroughly. It's great for children of all ages, and even for a quiet walk away from the troubles of life. It's a wonderful place to go and I thoroughly enjoyed the gift and creation from God, and I felt more connected with him and the community as I enjoyed the amazing experience they had given me.

Walker's Creek Trail

Walker Creek Trail Review

March, 2024 by madelynshort

The park was so wonderful to walk! It was so cool to see how you guys kept the flow of nature and didn't confine the growth of the plants, so keep up the good work. Though I would say, I found quite a bit of trash in the stream under the bridge. It took off some of that beauty I was seeing and I couldn’t get a good picture without the trash in it. I would work to improve that for the ecosystem and the visitors. While I was walking I didn’t find any benches around the trail. And I thought of the elders, that I have seen walking this trail, who might want to sit down and rest if they plan to stay for a while. I went to go see the wildflower field and wow are they pretty! Most of them weren’t in bloom but the ones that were, were amazing. Most trails I have been down didn’t have a wildflower field and it is what makes the Walker Creek Trail so special!

Campion Trail

Wide cycle and running path

September, 2023 by benjigator

There are a lot of people on the trail, and many people are walking their dogs. The path is really great.

If you are a clipped-in cyclist, the path can be dangerous because young children play on the path. Because of the winding and trees, it's hard to see people standing to talk or children lying down on it.

Generally, the parents who take their children to the path or picnic don't pay attention to cyclists or runners. Very young children are on the path with no adult supervision, or they step in front of bikes to be funny.

The leashed dogs generally lunge at runners and cyclists.

If the path is quiet, it's a great place. The public roads around this are dangerous for cyclists. Texas is generally a very dangerous place to cycle on public roads. I'm not sure how to change this.

Be safe!

Big Bear Creek Greenbelt

Nice with Shade

May, 2023 by kinjamyhaz

Nice trail. Very popular and busy. A few small inclines. O r of my favorites

A-train Rail Trail

especially poor south half

May, 2023 by petdav_tl

Took my family out to ride and started at the southern point. The write up suggests scenic views but unless you count landfills, fences, fire hydrants and highway barricades as scenery, you will be disappointed. Signage is terribly lacking and in many places, so too is the trail cleanliness (broken glass, garbage, etc). I found it both funny and disheartening that the path goes directly in front of a parks and rec building.

Cotton Belt Trail

Inline Skate Here All The Time

May, 2023 by jimenagpacheco462

I love inline skating here. The path is never too crowded, there are nice views, and up and down inclines come and go with some nice shade from time to time. Be very careful, however. There are wooden bridges and frequent intersections you have to cross. You need to know how to slow down, stop, and jump with relative ease on skates in order to enhance your experience here. All in all, this is a great workout. Bring plenty of water and wear protective gear.

Lake Mineral Wells State Trailway

Trail needs attention & signs

March, 2023 by vc2019

We rode from Mineral Wells east. Paved section was passable but look for breaks and gulleys along the way. The first section of fee trail was not finely crushed anything- rocks and cinders washed out . Once we found the section of crushed limestone it was good until we reached 3 mile spot at 1195 road crossing . Trail closed due to a bridge out. No idea which one. No warning at trail head. No idea signs detours. None At trailhead

A-train Rail Trail

Convenient access

March, 2023 by vc2019

We rode from Denton to Corinth round trip. Loved how easy it is to access the trail, parking close to the police station hoping on to the trail and when done, Denton has lots of good options for lunch. The only down side was the zig zag gates at some of the road crossings.

Bedford Trails

short and easy

March, 2023 by nicholas_wolff

As a beginner road biker, it’s good for slow speed, gentle slopes and curves and practicing the basics. Also recommended for jogging and walking the dog
