Paved trail is good and convenient for family with infent or toddlers. Its a nice oasis in the middle of the city. Trail passes through creek ans has some area to relax close to water. Would recommend it for sure.

One of the better hiking parks Ive been to. Theres plenty of small trails, large paved trails and the creek to check out.We joined their volunteer group to help do some cleanup which happens pretty regularly on the weekends.

Pretty scenery, though not a huge area on the North side. The South side is a bit longer of a trail. Trail is slightly overgrown in some spots, and there are felled trees in many places throughout. The creek is pretty to look out, but be careful as there is a 20 foot sheer drop in some spots. Other than that, not much elevation change, it was quite flat. Tree cover provided lots of shade. Highway noise is quite loud and distracting, since its adjacent to PGBT. As some others have noted, there is an abundance of litter (I even found an entire shopping cart in the creek).If I were to compare it to, say, Barton Creek in Austin near Twin Falls or near the municipal pool, I would say this area doesnt hold a candle. Though it may be one of the best walking trails in the DFW metro area, all things considered.

Spring Creek is a great place for family events or just getting away from the city feel. I back up to this greenbelt and am amazed the wildlife I see in my back yard. I have seen coyotes, bobcats, armadillos, racoons,owls and many other bird species. If in the wooded areas be aware there are snakes, you will only get bit if you step on the snake.

There was a lot of trash where there should have been scenic views. The trail itself is getting overgrown and at times it was hard to discern where the path lay. Needs a clearer path or signs at least to ensure you are on the right track.

Midsized parking lot. No paved trails. But several miles under trees along river. Then a few more crisscrossing a prairie

A hidden gem worth finding. Very peaceful with a variety of nature, trees, rocks, and just beautiful.

Great place for cyclocross racing! Great course! Super fun!

Good trails they have concrete trails and theres off the beat trails through the woods and everything you get to see different things like they said theres a lot of abundance of rare plants had a great time walking around talking to people I get a five star

Its a nice albeit small nature preserve. I totally recommend this place for a walk with the family after a substantial meal... Also, the armoring or the creek makes for an interesting conversation about urban streams.

Nice trail. Lots of mosquitoes though. Water was beautiful. Some areas had a lot of trash but its a nice trail. Go check it out

Such a great place to relax and warch nature. Try going there during different seasons to see all this has to offer.

Wonderful natural preserve ! Beautiful creek + lot of wild flowers. You can hear singing, and the sound of water.. very relaxing. Escape from the stressful city life and emerge yourself with nature !One minus point is there is some trash that need to be cleaned up along the creek. If the city host some clean up event, I would be the first one who volunteer ! Overall, Highly recommended !

Unfortunately, I was not happy to see how poorly the trails are kept. No clear markers, lots of over growth and some parts of the creek are really trashed. Please do not litter and teach your kids not to. This place can be a lot more beautiful if it were cleaner and if the trails were kept more clear. I gave it 3 stars because location is great and they have gorgeous fields of wild flowers (Spring). If you want a very short and easy hike this is a good place.

So close to nature -- even in the city.

Absolutely beautiful. So peaceful and relaxing

Poison ivy everywhere! We went there in May 2020 for a family walk. We could hardly take a step without finding poison ivy all over both sides of the trail. Beware! Other than that, it was a good place to visit.

The circular trail that goes around the pond is great. The inside woods are also really neat to explore, and Ive added some photos of it. I like to call it a lonely joint, but its not bad at all. Never too many people.

Beautiful little trial to spend an afternoon or evening

My sons love this place and so do I

Cool trails in the woods. This is my go to for a quick hike with the kids. You can get close to the water in sections and skip rocks which is fun with the kids. They also have a concrete path that extends out to a small lake. The loop is pretty nice and usually isnt that crowded.

Had a great time exploring the trails. Easy parking and you can pick easy or more challenging trails to venture on.

Going to be a wonderful place to walk, ride or jog...

Absolutely love this place. Feels like being in country, great trails, clean, never packed. Only thing is qatxh out for venomous snakes we came across a copper head today on the trail today! No restrooms or water fountains but beautiful place dog friendly.

Its nice but I dont believe it actually meets criteria that define a forest. its good to preserve our wildlife. hopefully we havent removed too many trees and brush that our animals and insects cant live. Ive never understood the need humans have to be packed into every little space that it becomes necessary to remove everything natural. anyone who believes that humans will destroy the planet not thinking clearly. the planet will remove humans if need be to preserve itself.

Beautiful park, with great paved trails, as well as off the beaten path trails.

Really nice preserve, plenty of beautiful foliage and wildlife. Be cautious hiking though after a rain storm, the trails tend to get pretty muddy.

Nice, unpaved trail on the south side. I recommend the trail on the south side as it is longer; although, the north side is accessible to the creek. We spotted a hawk, coyote, and turtles on our walk. Not too long of a trail but it’s nice and safe. Nice photo opportunities.

Trail markers could be clearer, and also highway is quite loud.(sound barriers?)

Wonderful little nature preserve among the suburban neighborhoods, a great escape. Didnt even feel like I was in North Texas.

Nice paved trails with a good amount of shade. Multiple patches of wildflowers.

A very nice and easy trail walk. Mostly flat, wide tails with plenty of forest shade. No bathrooms. Took about an hour to walk the trail with stopping many times to view the clear waters of Spring Creek.

Love those place been going here for yesterday great hooking or trail running.

Good trails but people throw too many drink bottles down and hard liquor bottles also. Great wilderness walk if not for that

This place is a beautiful, so peaceful, and not many ppl

Beautiful preserve. Very well kept paths. Lots of off the path trails to take. The creek is gorgeous with beautiful green water. Bathroom available at trail head.

Excellent place for kids...Thanks TEXAS

Good place to go to get away from it all.

Fabulous place to go for a walk enjoy nature and to bring your dog for exercise. Nature’s way of medicates against city stress!

A good place to walk around

I love this place..... beautiful hiking areas.... very safe.... lots of rabbits and squirrels.... be careful during the summer I have seen snakes....

Very scary for walking there, you need a company or a dog with.Not a lot to see there.Its like you are walking in a real forest.

Great trail, quiet and nice shade from trees, be careful with snakes though, I saw one cottonmouth on my way to the creek but got away before I reached my cel, you can see the tail going under the walkway.

BEWARE FYI.... my car and 2 other cars got vandalized and robbed in broad daylight on Sunday afternoon August 2, 2020. They broke windows and stole items out of the car. They have no cameras or anything so be advise.

Very cool unpaved with floral whiffs through narrow walk ways

Good:Decent place for a walk.The only place in this area for a walk through the woods.A few views of the creekPlenty of free parkingWide Paved trailsMostly shaded trailsBad:Not exactly out in the wild...runs along the back of a massive apartment complex, and ends at a huge big box shopping center. Not scenic except for a couple views of the creek.Flooding sometimes a problem

If you like to go on little hikes through the woods. This is your place! Lots of different mini trails. And a very pretty creek bed!

Just an awesome place to get away from the city and feel engulfed by nature.

Nice walking trails and scenery for photos.

Theres little trails that you can walk on that break off from the concrete one and its open late

Awesome trail walk. Kinda short for my taste but my kids had a blast.

There are several stretches of this preserve. I like the unpaved part NW of Holford rd.

Love this place we go here all the time

Beautiful nature preserve. Took my dog on a walk and we both loved it!

Very close by, not especially large. Big enough for a nice nature walk. All in all very satisfied.

Dogs love it. Great hiking trails and water for dogs to cool off.

I loved everything about it.

Great place for a quiet and peaceful walk. Mother Nature is very welcoming here.

Place is beautiful. However, it needs more maintenance. Sometimes I find garbages on the trail. If this place maintained properly then it would have been a great place to run or walk.

Its a nice short nature trail. The creek itself needs cleaned of debri and litter.

Cycle Cross races every Wedsday!! A bit pricey, but is fun!!

I found lots of fossils big and small... all I need is a professional to help me see where they come from and all that fun stuff!

Go here a couple times a week to ride. It is always fun. I wish there were more close places like this around.

Beauitful place. Terrible how much trash is everywhere. Sad that theres so few nature preserves left in the area; the few we keep are hardly cared for or appreciated. Little by little we are losing nature to our selfish and mindless ways. Thank you for this small piece of heaven. Its a reminder of what peace and beauty really is.

Its a nice park for a trail walk and seemingly has some rare plants

Great place

You can visit if:Its in 10miles radius of your locationAnd the weather is in a good mood!

I love that I found this place so close to home!

Beautiful place.

Just awesome

Nice park and clean

Had a great time taking a walk with my family. I believe there is more than one trail, we took the Northern Trail. Great for families of all ages, I took my 1.5 and 2.5 year old, they were able to walk most of it with no help. Just the right length to the end and back, by the last 20 mins their feet were dragging lol. We saw Cardinals, Butterflies, tiny garden snakes, squirrels, and turtles in the creek.

Very nature like If You need it ya heard.

Small park you have to find the hard to find trails in the back left corner away from Shiloh rd. Go down to the creek its usually clear enough to swim in. Adventuring in the city, love it

Its a really nice park! Just kinda a lot of trash around:( ppl littering. Next time I go, i will enjoy my hike, and take a trash bag along. Everyone please do the same if you can! Keep our parks beautiful!

This is a lovely flat, forest trail that follows a creek to a bench nestled in the shade beneath the trees, then returns through more forest, opening into a sunny meadow that is filled with wildflowers in the spring. On our last trip, the recent rains had brought down several trees across the creek, making them a trap for litter floating downstream. Also several trees were down over the trail, and we had to clamber over, or make our way around some of them. Beware, this is snake habitat, and we have seen several on our visits here, including copperheads.

Fun hiking trail. Kids love it. Does get muddy after rains, but has another trail down and across the road that has concrete paths.

I love it, I came early in the morning before it got to hot. There weren’t many people here. It was very peaceful. It took my about 30 minutes to walk the whole trail so it’s not a long trail case someone was wondering. I would recommend going onto the website to download the markers, it gives you a little onsite on the scenery. Plus you get cool little rod bits of information. I enjoyed it a lot.

Beautiful paved and unpaved walking trails. We loved it!

Its a quiet place to relax and walk

I love the trail here. I minus one star because there is a section where you do walk past apartments so it kind of ruins the experience for a few minutes. There is a paved trail and a few dirt trails you can take to add to your trek.

Quiet and relaxing

Love this place. Their beautiful oaks tree. This park actually have a variety of oak trees in Texas. If you want more accurate information go to park and recreation sites.

Absolutely gorgeous.

Really nice place for a walk aside from all the trash along the creek.

Nice trails and walkways

Went for a quick hike yesterday. I was really impressed with how clean it was. Someone is really working hard to keep it that way.

Nice place for a jog or run also a short hangout.

You want to go for a run, or walk your dog this is a good place to go. You can also walk the trail and find a couple of tiny creeks. Good place to play sports or drone flying. It is large and have several trails.

Great for walking biking hiking .. there are some dirt trails fun to adventure w my son

Could be cleaner but, not bad overall. Good woods trek, learned how to skip rocks here with friends on the creek, and found a fun makeshift swing!

Beautiful park with nice paved walkways through an oak forest along a nice creek. Good family fun.

Awesome place to fossil hunt

Beautiful

Very pretty walking trails. The dogs loved it as much as we did.

I have visited this pace since I was a kid in the 1970s and have enjoyed rediscovering it so many years later with my 8 year old daughter. Beautiful Old Growth trees with a large ctrl and trails. Thank goodness they preserved this area before it could have been bulldozed forever....Highly recommend visiting the gorgeous trees that I have personally known for 40 years!

I hike here frequently. The thing to bear in mind is the uniqueness of the Forest.This is a RARE hardwood oak forest.There are Chinqapin, Red and Bur Oak,some hundreds of years old.The creek is spring fed and very clear. Yes, there is trash in the creek, So bring a bag and pick some up! The trails are not super well marked,but thats part of the charm.Its natural.If you care to explore theres a lot to see, including native prairie.

Even with the hot temperatures great place for picnic!!

Beautiful place to go and walk trails

In most seasons, the wildflowers are great, the trails are fun and its not very busy. Most trails are near rivers, so bird-watching and fishing can be enjoyed.
