Width: 96 inches. Great trail and a wonderful ride. Where the path cuts through deep woods, the city above disappears. Parks along the way provide a rest stop w clean porta-potties. Saw Parks and Rec folks maintaining the trail as well as police and Park Security riders. Special place. At approx. None of us were aware of such curfew and nowhere along the route is anything posted that mentions said curfew.
Wondering if anyone else has had a similar experience. We were really impressed with this trail. There was a ton of wildlife and the elevation changes throughout segment 1 were hardly noticeable. There a couple of intersections with other trails that could cause some confusion, so be intentional about slowing down and making sure you are staying on the green way. Unfortunately we were only halfway through our run and could not take a BBQ break - but it was really tempting.
Most of this trail is shaded. So even on "warmer" days, the sun exposure is limited and welcomed. We will be back and look forward to running some of the other segments. Note: We ran about.
Technically, the trail is not open where it runs underneath but there is a concrete path for a half mile or so. First time riding this trail, and I have to say after riding both segment 2 and 3. It was fun and the scenery was fabulous. It took 2 hours round trip of leisure riding and even got to see about 10 whitetail deer along the way. Awesome ride and would recommend to anyone.
I'm not in the greatest shape and if I can do it anyone can!! I really enjoyed this part of the trail the description provided by Traillink is on target what is left out is that it is quite easy to continue on to south of Rittiman Rd for about a mile? Very safe. Then if you are willing to ride the sidewalk on Rittiman Rd you can cut through the light traffic of Terrell Hills to catch the bike lanes on Broadway.
I highly recommend this trail! You can ride a steady no hills 6 mile round trip if you head south from There is construction, but all you have to do is turn around. The trail is wide enough for walkers, joggers and bikers.
