Lots of shaded rest areas with benches and water fountains, multiple parking access points, bike, repair tools, has a very rural feel for such an urban location. There are two almost separate trails separated by a comfortable sidewalk. There are more users on the southern half. Well done, Temple!
Multiple access points with several doggie bag stations.
Adding disc golf and shelters for picnics.
Easy 1.5 mile trail about 10 feeet wide and paved.
