White Rock Creek Trail

Review:  Part of the best paved trail system in the Dallas area, White Rock Creek Trail is a heavily used trail that extends from North Dallas to White Rock Lake. This trail segues through a green belt alongside White Rock Creek, avoiding street crossings allowing for a continuous ride. Very highly recommended!

Distance: 8.4 miles one way

Where is it?:  You can catch the trail from multiple areas. The trail head is near Alpha and Hillcrest just north of LBJ Expressway at Valley View Park. You can also pick up the trail at a park on Royal and Greenville Avenue, or at White Rock Lake itself. Below is a link to Valley View Park, the ‘official’ trailhead.

Facilities: There are portable toilets at Valley View Park. You can also find bathrooms as well as a store at the Fair Oaks tennis court center, about midway through the trail. If they are open, you can stop for a Gaterade or an ice cream.

Suitable for: Walking / Jogging / Biking

Type of Trail: Concrete

Shade: This trail is mainly in the sun, although you do follow a greenbelt for much of the trail’s length.

Where to Park: Valley View Park is a great spot to start the trail, but you can also park at the SE corner of Royal and Greenville, or start at White Rock Lake and take the trail away from the Lake

A long time native of North Texas, I love to hike and mountain bike in my spare time. I’m always looking for some place new to explore, which is why I’m doing this site.
