Great trail..Brisk walk 6 days per week and squeeze in a bike ride here and there.. on 9/23/2025 at dusk west bound on the trail headed back to our vehicle quarter mile from the Garner parking lot wife heard something in the bush for several minutes. mentioned it to me, i stopped, turned and looked to the south of the trail and there it was.. The big Cat stopped looked at us and turned jumped and ran.. Pretty dense brush but we saw him/her clear as day... I was shocked to say the least... I would expect to see bobcat, but not this big girl.. We walk fast, wife behind me, was stalking and or checking her out.. Kinda Scary...
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!
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.
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!
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.
Rode on a trekking bike -- many sections very rough or had deep sand. Not a casual easy ride at all. Needs to be smoothed with a firmers more regular surface like cinder or paved. Very quiet and scenic though a lot of potential

June 1, 2023 - Part of the trailway, from FM 1195 in Mineral Wells to the Vietnam War Memorial, is closed until further notice. Please observe closure signs for your safety.
Great spot lots of activity on off of the trail.
This 5 mile section of trail runs along a busy road, and is in the sun, BUT I’m so glad it’s there because Village Creek blends into River Legacy Park trail system, giving you approx 25 miles round trip! It’s a wide concrete trail about 5 ft from the road in most areas. (I feel safe riding here.) That being said, this trail system will be even longer once they open the new section of trail! The plan is to connect trails between Fort Worth and Dallas. I understand that new system will be called Discovery Trail which will be over 100 miles!
Much if the trail to the right of entrance closed off. Didn’t get a chance to ride the lake route. Otherwise nice ride.
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.
