Trail Overview

This is a well-maintained gravel road through the scenic LBJ Grasslands. There are no major obstacles or water crossings, but lots of campsites and photo ops. Find somewhere to pull off and have a picnic, or use one of the pavilions near the trailhead. This is the perfect trail for people looking for a quick getaway or to do some exploring. Cell service is sporadic at best, but there is service along the higher spots of the trail. Be sure to check for campsite availability if you plan on staying overnight, as they fill up fast!

If you enter from CR 2560 it’s open, the road at the end where the scenic overlook is comes to a dead end/locked gate with space to turn around, we were able to take gravel pit back out

At the south end of trail the road leading to it is marked no outlet. Multiple signs for wrong GPS, no turn around. Gate was locked when checked.

3/9/26 - You can turn right to head to TADRA off 904 but going left toward the west side was closed off. It was open a couple weeks ago when i was out. I’m assuming it rained too much in the last week and they should have it open again shortly. It’s a nice section of trail with some good sites overlooking the bluff.

Nice trail. So quiet and peaceful. Only sound was the paws of my dog. If you want to escape the metroplex for a bit, perfect spot to chill.

Trail was really easy even on a 4runner with road tires is a good way to get your toes in the water when it comes to offroading.

Trail was open and clear. Gravel road so it had a few pot holes but nothing crazy at all. Several families camping and a lot of them had horses. Horses were never on the road but they are riding next to it and crossing it so keep an eye out for them! Beautiful land.
