Northshore Trail — Attraction in Flower Mound

I visited several trail systems in and around the north Dallas area and this was the best set of trails I came across. Varying degrees of difficulty and multiple distance options. I rode loops #1-4, which are beginner to intermediate with only a few advanced sections. Loops #5-8 are for more experienced riders, from what I have heard and read.

I visited twice, starting from Simmons drive all the way to the Rockledge Dr. parking lot and back in this order - loops 2, 3 4 them loop 1 at the end - approximately 11 miles. Some areas of the trail are very hot due to lack of tree shade, especially during Texas summers. Also there are some sandy areas so don’t wipeout turning through those.

Excellent flow, mix of wide and narrow, shaded and open areas, singletrack, tight turns, bridges, creeks, couple of large rock drops and a couple of short, challenging climbs. Gorgeous scenery overlooking the water in multiple places. highly recommended.

DORBA’s site lists additional trails that I visited multiple times.

I would like to rate it lower for one particular reason, the trail is only one way and for a casual walker a very long one way. There are very few intersecting points where you can cross back over to the other side. Another reason I would like to rate it a bit lower is because of some narrow sequence parts of the path where bike go down at a higher rate of speed along blind spots for the walker.

In would like to rate it lower but simply cannot. The trail is long, yes, but beautiful and well maintained and clean. The bikers were plentiful but nearly all perfect and courteous. This is a wonderful asset for our...
