Confirmed from Chisholm Trail Trailhead's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Chisholm Trail Trailhead
It's a well maintained trail that goes for several miles providing quite a bit of greenery for your viewing pleasure as opposed to all the gray surrounding it. Nice to see the abundance of wildlife.
This is my first time riding the trail since I recently relocated to the area. I got on the trail at Harrington Park and rode up Creek to the main area where the trail winds out underneath the power lines. On the way back I got mixed up and got on the bluebonnet trail so I ended up riding a lot longer than I intended.
Beautiful wide bike or walk trail along Spring Creek just west of downtown Plano and Central Expwy.
An amazing place to take a good long walk or run. Nicely paved and a safe place to put in your earbuds and do you own thing.
