Feeling the Need to Get Out? Enjoy the Cool Fall Weather on Waxahachie’s Hike & Bike Trail
Ellis County residents looking for a fun, safe outdoor activity can find just that on the beautiful Waxahachie Hike and Bike Trail.
The trail stretches from Lion's Park to Getzendaner Park in Waxahachie. For most of its length, the trail runs along or very near Waxahachie Creek. The trail passes Waxahachie Rodeo Arena and Fairgrounds, Rogers Street Bridge south of downtown Waxahachie, and the Old City Cemetery.
A small section of this trail (0.2 miles) is constructed on an abandoned railroad grade. The eastern half of the trail winds along Waxahachie Creek. You will pass an abandoned Missouri-Kansas-Texas (MKT) rail line and an active Burlington Northern Sante Fe (BNSF) rail line.
The trail is about 3.5 miles long, and it is not a loop, Therefore, if you walk the length of the trail don’t forget to have a ride waiting at the other end. Or of course you can walk back for a great 7-mile workout. Along the way you can also find a short jog off the paved path that extends into a more natural area.
The trail is open year-round for friends and family to enjoy.
