Just a quick note to say that one of the least known 
yet best resources for information regarding hike and bike trails in the City of Dallas might be the Dallas Parks and Recreation’s Happy Trails program which can now be found on Facebook. Go here as they say.
While the funding (and construction) of many of the trails in the City of Dallas might be a joint City/County/other effort, most of the hike and bike trails are managed by the Dallas Parks and Rec department, so keeping up with them is a good idea if you’re a hike and bike person.
The Happy Trails folks have had a website for a while now and although it’s informative I’m still not sure about the maps they provide, if you can make them work you’re doing better than me. But it’s their Facebook page that you want to check out. You’ll find recent City trail updates and eye candy (recent photos) of City of Dallas trails and/or trail maps.
So mosey on over to their Facebook page and “like” them and start learning more about hike and bike trails in the City of Dallas.
Speaking on hike and bike trails, I’m updating some of the links for the Dallas County Trail Plan and I’m planning to revisit the County Trail system soon. Quite a bit has happened since I first wrote about the subject back in January of 2010.
