Oak Cliff Preserve



In keeping with my recent theme of visiting trails for the first time, I just returned from Oak Cliff Preserve. The trail is interesting with many creek crossings. They also have interesting names for some of the features. In keeping with the south Dallas area there are more rocks here and some pretty technical rock features. Not to mention some of the rock face whoop-t-do's which will get your attention. Check out all the photos here:

I did see more than a few bikers walking through this one. My first time down it was "pretty much clich tight and trust the bike will hold together" which it did and I survived.

I was there on a Saturday and it was pretty busy. I would guess the track is about 7 miles and it does have 6 loops which are clearly marked. There is also some open prarie space riding in some of the loops but not nearly as much as Erwin has.

All things considered, this is a fairly fun trail with several challenges. If you are in the area give it a try.
