The Red Arroyo Trail is 14-foot wide trail connecting two of San Angelo’s major thoroughfares, Knickerbocker Road in the east, and Sherwood way in the west. The trail is an important community asset, connecting neighborhoods, open space and other amenities. It’s 4-miles long, including tributaries, and offers pedestrians, cyclists, and skaters a safe and comfortable alternative for both transportation and recreation. Green riparian scenery and stormwater retention ponds dot the route. There are three trailheads with parking and seating: Unidad Park, Sul Ross Street and Millbrook Drive, and a restroom at Unidad Park. A dog park is a possible future development along the trail.
