Smooth concrete trail. A little crowded in the middle through the park area. Be ready for an abrupt end at the west end of the trail.
Very nice trail and hard to believe you are in a city. Wooded with lots of shade.
If you continue north on the Riverwalk trail and do not cross the pedestrian bridge you will reach some amazing mountain bike trails!
We only did a stretch of it to the Los Lingos Bridge. The trails in the park itself are way better than this. It just cuts through farmland, it is bumpy and rocky and, in spots, muddy. Definitely not the caliber we have been spoiled with for an official rail to trail path. You need a mountain bike for this imo.
This trail is great if you’re looking for a safe, urban trail. All of the streets that intersect the trails have clear cross walks/lights which made me feel more comfortable with my dog. My dog is quite reactive so I’m always looking for trails that have fewer people on them but feels safe and this was exactly that!
As mentioned by a March 2024 reviewer, access to the trail from Trail Blazer Park is not possible. After driving to the other end of the trail (parking near the landfill at 31.480351887289, -97.25833084813019 ) we discovered the trail itself is torn up from Church St all the way to Trail Blazer Park. It appears there's a flood control project in work?
Also slightly disappointing the base of the trail under the concrete apparently wasn't compacted well as the surface is cracking badly in many places. This damage will need repair at some point.
It's a short ride (due to the construction) but still worth it.
The Rock Island Rail Trail is a nice, wide, flat, urban, concrete trail with lots of trees planted along the way. There are benches, gazebos, and a couple of water fountains. However, there is no parking or restrooms. There are several road crossings with traffic lights. I found it disappointing due to the lack of anything to see except the road on one side and backyard fences and dumpsters on the other.
Rode the trail on my E-bike from Farmersville for 17miles. You start to run in to big mud puddles after 10 miles as of March 30 but I’m sure that will dry up in the next month or so.
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.
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!
This trail is pretty long and seems safe! It’s scenic and has cute picnic spots too.
