We come walking on this trail pretty often or as my daughter likes to call it "the forest". It is…read morevery long and great for exercising. There's a creek that runs through it (hence the name) lol There is plenty of parking & they also recently added this cool playground. Now, I wish there was some type of shaded area because it gets HOT. Other than that, it's conveniently close to home and we recommend it!

Duck Creek Greenbelt Trail is about 3 and half miles, looped trail located near Garland, Texas and…read morethe trail isn't very difficult. The trail is good for hiking, walking, running, and road biking. The trail is also accessible year-round. Dogs are welcomed on the trail but should be leashed. There is a lot to do there depending on your preference. The trail runs through some trees and eventually leads to a nice little scenic lake. The trail is made of concrete so its great for running , biking or anything else with wheels. The lake would be a good spot for a picnic too but be warned there's a lot of walking before you get to the lake. There's also a nice playground for the kids as well. I would avoid coming on to the trail if there was any rain in the previous days because the trail path can easily flood making it very unpleasant and too wet to cross. There is a soccer park close by if you want a wide open field as well. Check it out if your looking for something to do on a nice day!

I love the time it's in the summer but about the bugs is kind of a bit annoyed about. It's not that…read morethey should remove it. I'm just saying that it's too concerned for me. Well, it is a creek trail so there has to be bugs right but anyways, they have so many trails But my grandpa and I don't take off course trails because we just don't want to. We don't have any reason for, but we just don't want to. But it's so good looking lots of different species. I've actually saw species type of bug there. It was so beautiful. I even had a butterfly land on me one time I didn't want to move or scare away because it was so pretty.

This is such a great nature area to walk or bike around. There are nice paved paths for walking or…read morebiking and some nature trails you can explore. We walked off the paved paths and ended up lost in the middle of the forest but it was fun being surrounded by nature. If you walk on the paved path, then it'll loop around the entire park. The nature trails had some dead ends which sucks because we were hoping it would connect back to the main path somehow. The only surprising thing is the limited parking spot available. There's only one small parking lot with 7 SPOTS available for the park, and they were all taken by others. We had to park our cars at Chick-fil-a and walked across the street just to get to the park.

Just being able to hear the water waves, and seeing the sun glistening against the water is a tranquil vibe. On the some weekends there are people giving birthday parties or barbecuing at the Barbecue Grills. There is a Fishing Pier, Parking lot area, Pavilions (Small), Picnic Tables, a Playground where my kids play and swing, a Sand Volleyball Court, Trails for Hiking / Biking. I enjoy the peace and convenience of the view to walk around the lakeside in a calm setting.

It was nice that the park had a lot of paved roads because the snow/ice melting that day left the grass pretty muddy. The park was pretty clean for the most part. There were some debris/trash stuck in the creek and in the forest sadly!

I highly recommend this for a weekend getaway from the DFW metro. No water fountains, but there are occasional benches and trash cans when you're in a town segment. This is part of the hopefully completed someday Northeast Texas Trail, which is 130-miles long.

Today, it was a bit soggy and we maybe walked a mile. Of course that will not be an issue here normally. We shop in Farmersville regularly and are just a few miles away anyways. We'll be back to walk it again.

It was really beautiful but it didn't need some attention... perhaps some trash picked up and the trails marked and it was be a really great outdoors area. We did run into a coyote but it was far away and ran when it saw us. It was very empty, only ran into one person on a Sunday afternoon. More people should check this out and help clean up the area!

Despite the constant flooding that occurs in the area when it rains, I feel like they still do what they can to make sure they keep up the park. They've actually expanded the width of the sidewalks which is great for the rapidly growing area. They've also added a flower garden for those who want to sightsee. The pavilion is also kept up nicely, be sure to arrive early because it is constantly being used by large groups for events and etc. The one thing I do wish they had along this part of the trail are bathrooms and better water fountains. But it's great if you like to stay active with biking and running and there is plenty of parking and it does feel safe for the most part. Spring/ early summer is a great time of year to go and check it out, stay cool under the shaded trees and enjoy nature!
