Safety is always top of mind so we were finalizing the design of the space around the trail with wide views, clear lines of sight and lighting locations so users feel safe and can clearly see what’s ahead of and around them.

Before we begin construction, a lot of thought and planning goes into our trails. Last week, we met on location with our design team to take a look at the North Phase ll of the Trinity Forest Spine Trail, which will be under construction later this year.

Trails are incredible resources for recreational activity and they provide Dallasites with accessibility to our public amenities like parks, green spaces, shopping centers and entertainment districts.

The trails in Dallas connect people to nature. Trails like the Trinity Forest Spine Trail (once complete) give us access to beautiful green spaces that can’t be reached by car. The Trinity Forest and AT&T trails offer breathtaking views of the Great Trinity Forest!

Hop on your bike or put on your walking (running or jogging) shoes and explore the Sante Fe Trail! The 12-foot wide, 4.3 mile concrete trail connects White Rock Lake to Deep Ellum and Fair Park. Explore the restaurants and bars in Deep Ellum or take the trail to Fair Park!

This community is what makes the Dallas trails so great. Last week, we headed out to the White Rock Lake Spillway to meet up with our recent giveaway winner Oscar, and had a blast! We were able to chat about the trails, travel, bikes and gear…all the things we love!

The Trinity Skyline Trail is the first trail to use the Dallas floodway to bring trail goers close to the Trinity River. The City of Dallas and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers started the Dallas Floodway project to provide comprehensive flood risk management.

Take advantage of the trails like the Trinity Forest or AT&T Trails and see trees like the Green Ash, the most widespread ash species in North America, turn from a vibrant green to a beautiful golden-yellow.

The Katy Trail Caboose is one of the 2021 Preservation Dallas Achievement Award winners. It was submitted by The Friends of the Katy Trail because it’s a beautiful example of dedication to preservation. It’s also a nod to the trail’s past and a bit of Dallas history.
