The White Rock Creek/Lake Trail is without question both the longest and the most heavily-used trail in North Texas. The trail has a total length of 17.1 miles with the portion of the trail that encompasses the lake having a length of 9.5 miles and the portion of the trail that begins at Hillcrest/LBJ Freeway in North Dallas having a length of 7.6 miles.

Very popular with both serious cyclists and novice week-end bike-riders, as well as with marathoners and Sunday walkers, this trail offers people long distances and views of a large lake that is located in the heart of a city with a population of 1.2 million people.  Parking, water fountains, restrooms, and picnic areas are available at the lake and at the trail's northern entrance.
