I usually run the Northshore Trail near Flower Mound, TX. It is arguably the best running and mountain biking trail in North Texas. I typically take a few pics as I jog so I can show others what the trail is like. Here's a few pics from my jog this morning, followed by a few maps of the trail. For updated GPS data, see my
Northshore Trail GPS Data on Garmin.
To help you find the trail heads, I created a Google Map with markers for (from top-left to bottom-right), Twin Coves (also known as "Far Gate"), Shoreline Drive, MADD Shelter (most popular), Murrell Park, Boy Scouts, and Rockledge Park (fee to enter):

Ahhh, DFW! I have visited Grapevine before a long time ago. Great Place I say. I miss El Burrito and Jack in the Box monster tacos. lol Looks like an awesome trail man.
ReplyDeleteAwesome trail! Wish I could find some like that up here in MN :)
ReplyDeleteHey Thomas,
ReplyDeleteGreat blog site. I'm new to the DFW area , having moved here from Canada and am looking for some trails to run. Just saw your NorthShore trail video - where's the best place to park to get to this trail?

Stuart, check out the Northshore Trail Heads map to locate the trail heads. The most popular location is the MADD shelter. More details on the Trail Head map.
ReplyDeleteYou should also join the North Texas Trail Runners. They are a great local trail running organization.
