Beuatiful place to get into nature locally. Its a dirt/mountain bike trail, so watch out for those cyclist barelling through sometimes. Most people are good about yielding to pedestrians, but some do not and expect you to move out of the way. During the summer and into late fall (may-nov) theres plenty of poison ivy/poison oak alongside the trail, so keep to the middle of the trail if youre allergic. The trail system is expansive and marked. The marking can be confusing however, because they have loops inside of loops. Its confusing where one ends and the other begins. If you dont want to get lost I encourage you to take a snap shot of the trail map at the entrance.

The experience initially was pleasant until the middle of the trail, where we were chased by two stray dogs. I thought they must have been some owners dogs but they barked and actually ran after us. I talked to another person who said some dogs were reported at least two weeks ago. I cant believe this matter hasnt been looked into. So anyone reading this please beware and avoid this trail for your safety.

Primarily off road biking trails, so if youre coming to hike be sure to start on the left side and walk counter-clockwise. The paths are nice and clear and the terrain is really nice for trail running. Only problem is once you get to the part where all the other loops begin, you can find yourself walking in circles. Very clean and friendly spot tucked away in the middle of Oak Cliff

The white trail was nice, very wooded and naturist but short about 40 min. Then we tried the yellow that one was very open (sun in your face), there were trees but you werent in them if that makes sense. Also if were newbie the yellow was a bit confusing as there were trials that started at a fork but were a deadend. We spend an hr and 20 min there and it was a nice walk overall

Very fun place to ride your bike at, though a bit risky at certain parts. The wood make for a relaxing walk, and the trails give you a nice run/jog. As for cycling, which is what I do, it can be scary at points, and even dangerous, but over time you get used to it and grow to love the adrenaline rush as you speed down a narrow down hill in the woods.

Por momentos dejas de escuchar el runrún de los carros por el cantar de los pájaros y; los árboles al ser movidos por el viento comienzan a platicar con tigo.

Pretty great to go either hiking or biking. All routes are connected to each other so they can all lead you to the entrance but you can get twisted and sort of lost taking what you think is the one color trail you choose. But getting lost is awesome here since you get to explore and see different things and interesting biking routes.

Beautiful scenery and nature trails with places to sit along the way if you need. A word of advise, plan for the season. Mosquito spray, sun screen, or warm clothing. Always wear appropriate hiking or quality tennis shoes. The terrain is uneven and steep at some points. Great for bird and critter watching. Take your camera.

Great little mountain bike trail that offers something for everyone. The only reason I didnt give it 4 stars is that numerous people have experienced vehicle break ins, so be aware and dont leave anything visible in your vehicle that might even suggest anything valuable in your vehicle.

Great trail, its close to Boulder Park so if you want you could do both. It can get a little hot since its more open than some places but the trail is fast and has plenty of small technical spots as well as a few decent climbs in the back.

I love this trail for mountain biking. Very well marked, and flows great. Took my buddy who is from some great Appalachian mtn trails and always whines that Dallas trails arent that good. He loved this one. Give it a try!

This place is awesome for biking. Really nice environment and the trail is challenging enough to keep you on your toes. Many turns, ups and downs and also many different terrains to keep you from getting bored

Bring water, hiking shoes and a friend for a long winding walk. This Trail system is extensive and offers choices for all levels and lengths. Be ready to share trails with lots of friendly mountain bikers.

Great place to hike, run and especially bike. Bring water and your phone if its your first time in case you get lost inside. There are stations for bike repairs inside in case you run into issues.

Nice place to explore and get exercise. We got lost on the trails so be ready to be out there for a while. We had a good time. Next time, we will be ready and take food so we can have a picnic.

Decent place to go for a walk and get away. There are some elevation changes, and watch for bikers. The garbage problem could be better maintained.

Eight miles trails that are great for biking, hiking or trail running. The spring (April/May) wildflowers are great.
