Description
This section of Plano's Chisholm Trail runs between Big Lake Park and the bridge over Spring Creek at the end of Parkview Lane. The trail follows the creek on the east side, and connects to the west side trail at both ends of this section. This is a nice section with some shade and no-mow area for wildflowers.
