With a length of 4.5 miles, the Santa Fe Trail further extends the continous trail corridor that begins in far northern Dallas with the Preston Ridge Trail, so that the corridor now ends at the door step of downtown Dallas--a distance of 20 miles. Built with funding provided by the City of Dallas, Dallas County, and TxDOT and utilizing a former Santa Fe railroad corridor that was provided by DART, the twelve-foot-wide trail begins at Winstead near the southern tip of White Rock Lake, crosses Grand Avenue, and continues past Woodrow Wilson High School to Hill Street in Deep Ellum.  The trail connects numerous neighborhoods and provides patrons with many unique views of Dallas and its downtown skyline.
